was filled with
smoke as the
men advanced…”
“The
eternal PM
soldier
had convinced
everyone to recheck
their gas masks!”
“many
lives
were
saved.”
“On november 7, 1918, the rail
lines were cut…
permanently.
“PM had done
its job!”

approached the bridge across
the rhine river…
“brave men and good
PM
worked.
eighteen days after crossing
the bridge at remagen, german
fighting west of the rhine ended.”

through the
argonne forest
and establish
bridgeheads
across the
meuse river…

masks!
…in order
to cut the
railroad
lines that
supply the

started!

will
shorten
the
war and save a lot
of g.I. lives! we
gotta do it
right!

equipment!

can foul
things up!
“Tankers…
