The announce men that the Stars and Stripes are waving with the British Union Jack and the French Trl-Color on this bat tlefield and that the Americans were "completing their training in the area occupied by the troops which are blocking the path of the Germans to the channel ports," which may indicate that somewhere along tl.e line from Mervllle to Ypres Is the point where Oeneral Pershing's men will once more strike the Germans.
