Thank you Joe !

Unknown but not forgotten !

Complete libraries are filled with books on Verdun-The Somme-The Ypres Battles

So little on the Battle of the Frontiers.

August 22nd 1914 would become the bloodiest day in WW I.
Killed: 41000 !
French: 27000
Germans: 14000

The 23rd of August 1914 would become a "resting day" in the German Army to recover from this clash.
