Capture of Martinpuich : ウィキペディア英語版 | Capture of Martinpuich
Martinpuich is situated south of Arras, near the junction of the D 929 and D 6 roads, opposite Courcelette. The village lies south of Le Sars, west of Flers and north-west of High Wood. In September 1914, during the Race to the Sea, the divisions of the XIV Corps advanced westwards, on the north bank of the Somme towards Albert and Amiens, passing through Martinpuich. The village became a backwater until 1916, when the British and French began the Battle of the Somme and was the site of several air operations by the Royal Flying Corps, which attacked German supply dumps in the vicinity. The 15th (Scottish) Division of the Fourth Army captured the village on 15 September, during the Battle of Flers–Courcelette . Several hundred prisoners of the 3rd Bavarian and 45th Reserve divisions were taken. After the village was captured, the pre-war light railway was repaired. The village was lost on 25 March 1918 during Operation Michael the German spring offensive and was recaptured for the last time on 25 August, by the 21st Division. ==Background==
