  • • Battle in world war i (1917); an allied offensive which eventually failed because tanks bogged down in the waterlogged soil of flanders; germans introduced mustard gas which interfered with the allied artillery
  • • Battle in world war i (1915); germans wanted to try chlorine (a toxic yellow gas) as a weapon and succeeded in taking considerable territory from the allied salient
  • • Battle in world war i (1914); heavy but indecisive fighting as the allies and the germans both tried to break through the lines of the others
