Image: "An oil patch showing a German submarine has gone to its watery grave" - HISTORY OP THE WAR 127 river during May, and on June 8th, captured Fort Vaux, having already suffered some 350,000 casualties. He still hoped for success, and during the month of June pressed hard upon the northeast sector,hoping for a decision, and by his successes at Thiaumont and Fleury, caused the situation of the French to become serious. But General Nivelle held firm, was always prepared for a counter-attack when necessary, and still maintained his position when the opening of the Anglo-French offensive on the Somme on July 1st brought welcome relief. It was not until October 24th, however, that General Nivelle began to turn the tables upon the enemy. On that date, after a formidable artillery preparation, followed by the shock of only four divisions, he recaptured Douaumont Fort and the adjacent positions, a success which compelled the enemy to evacute Fort Vaux on November 1st. On December 15th, after further careful preparation, the attack was continued northward on a front of six miles
