Battle of the Argonne

Battle of the Argonne
A machine-gun nest is set up against the Germans in the Battle of the Argonne in France in 1918. The battle helped bring about the final collapse of the German forces and brought about the German plea for an armistice, which was signed in 1918. This is considered one of the finest photographs of action during World War I.
