The burning of Thiaucourt on the afternoon of Sept. 12, 1918. Thiaucourt was one of the principal towns in the St. Mihiel salient. It was occupied by the Marine brigade during the reduction of the salient. "The reduction of the St. Mihiel salient," says General Pershing in his final report, "was important, as it would prevent the enemy from interrupting traffic on the Paris-Nancy railroad by artillery fire and would free the railroad leading north through St. Mihiel to Verdun. It would also provide us with an advantageous base of departure for an attack against the Metz-Sedan railroad system which was vital to the German armies west of Verdun, and against the Briey Iron Basin which was necessary for the production of German armament and munitions." |
