- Battle_of_Cambrai_(1917) abstract "The Battle of Cambrai (designated Battle of Cambrai, 1917 by the Battlefield Nomenclature Committee; also sometimes referred to as the First Battle of Cambrai) was a British offensive and German counter-offensive battle in the First World War. Cambrai, in the Nord département (Nord-Pas-de-Calais), was a key supply point for the German Siegfried Stellung (part of the Hindenburg Line) and capture of the town and the nearby Bourlon Ridge would threaten the rear of the German line to the north. Major General Hugh Tudor, Commander Royal Artillery (CRA) of the 9th Division, suggested trying out new artillery-infantry techniques on his sector of the front. During preparations, J. F. C. Fuller, a staff officer with the Royal Tank Corps (RTC), was in the process of looking for a place to use tanks as raiding parties. General Julian Byng, commander of the British Third Army, decided to incorporate them into the attack.The battle is sometimes described as the first use of large numbers of tanks in combat, or even as the first use of tanks at all. Despite being the first successful combined arms operation on a large scale, the first use of tanks was in September 1916, and both France and Britain had deployed tanks in large numbers earlier in 1917, although to considerably less effect.Despite British success on the first day, mechanical vulnerabilities and German artillery and infantry defences exposed the frailties of the Mark IV tank. On the second day, only about half of the original number of tanks was available. Subsequent British progress was limited. The British Official History, published in 1948, and modern scholarship do not place exclusive credit for the first day on the tanks, but discuss the concurrent evolution of artillery, infantry and tank methods. Numerous ongoing developments in evidence at Cambrai, such as predicted artillery fire, sound ranging, infantry infiltration tactics, infantry-tank coordination, and air support continued to mature and played a vital part during the Hundred Days Offensive, along with replacement of the Mark IV tank with improved types, in 1918.From the German perspective, the early, rapid reinforcement and successful defence of Bourlon Ridge, as well as the subsequent counter-attack were notable battle achievements.".
