Hiking
In the Lalues district, on August 22, the machine guns of the French soldiers, strategically positioned at the top of slag heap No. 4, proved to be particularly effective. The German soldiers bypass the French positions through the woods and Mont-Sainte-Aldegonde. The men engage in hand-to-hand and bayonet combat. Following the massacre and the burning of some seventy buildings, the staff of the Red Cross is largely called upon. Faced with the number of killed and wounded, the carts of the farmers are requisitioned.
