Description

French postcard of the war-damaged Cambrai near the Cathedral

http://www.abelard.org/france/germans_in_france-cambrai.php#cambrai_cathedral
From 20 November 1917 to 3 December 1917 the Battle of Cambrai took place, noted for an early and fairly successful use of tanks by the British. Later, from 8 October 1918 to 10 October 1918, there was a second Battle of Cambrai. This second battle was part of the Hundred Days Offensive, also known as Canada’s Hundred Days, where the Germans were driven back progressively through northern France.
