On the greater part of the front be- ) tween the Aire and Meuso Rivers the enemy is ¢ither on or immediately in front of this line On this front the enemy's main combat zone was bound. ed on the south by a line of resist- ance along Lairfuon ravine and on the north by the Volker-Stellung line. This exceptionally strong aystem or- ixinally began east of Montfaucon and ran south of that city through Ivoiry, Epinonville and the woods east of Eclisfontain. The Americans have already broken through this principal zone of re- sistance and are facing the Kriem- hild-Steelung system, From the west to the east along this front the sys- tem runs from north of St. Juvin to orges and eastward, neluding the heights of Romagne wood «nd Gesnes wood, which dominate the important continues valley of the Andon, This river is crossed just south of Romagne and the nthe system runs to the southeast across the higher ground i the for- ents of del Cunel and de Fais.
