A hideous price: the 4th Brigade at Blanc Mont, 2-10 October 1918 /
Peter F. Owen, John Swift
As the summer of 1918 entered its final days, the Great War accelerated toward a violent climax in the fall. Even while the Marines of the 4th Brigade fought at Saint-Mihiel, Allied commanders were completing plans that would launch the Marines once more into a major attack. The 2d Division’s hard-won reputation would guar- antee it another hard-fought battle. Before the 4th Brigade left the battlefield of Blanc Mont, its Ma- rines would achieve their most spectacular success of the war but endure their most severe day of losses.
