battle of the German Spring Offensive, it was during World War I and it focused on capturing the Chemin des Dames Ridge. Before the American Expeditionary Force would arrive in France. was one of a series of worried offensives, known as the Kaiserschlacht launched by the Germans. ( spring and summer of 1918)
The huge surprise attack lasted from May 27-june 6, 1918. It was the first full-scale German offensive attack following the Lys Offensive in Flanders in April.
Operation Blücher-Yorck (Erich Ludendorff) He was sure that victory at the Aisne would lead the German armies to attack distance of Paris. Ludendorff believed that this would cause the Allies to move sides from Flanders to help defend the French capital and that allowed the Germans to continue their Flanders violent with a greater ease. The Aisne was basically a large disturbing attack.
My personal Thought:
This battle was hard to find stuff about because there was very little informoation it talked bout many the first and second, but my main thing im saying is that this battle didnt seem very important, to me i dont think.
