French Onslaught (1914 1918)

Actual battle film French troops attacking from trenches. Good despite poor quality. French are running through burnt forest. German prisoners; with French guards; walk run or scramble through forest. MS prisoners and guard pose for picture. Back to the onslaught soldiers run by in foreground; others are doing same in background. Stark black tree in foreground and many burnt trees in background; also a grave with a cross on it which the men are running past. This really gives a good idea of the decimated battlefields of the Western Front. Scary stuff. Also on ON 403 P. FILM A VIDEO FROM BRITISH PATHÉ. EXPLORE OUR ONLINE CHANNEL, BRITISH PATHÉ TV.
