Somme - Adieu la Somme

November 1916 saw the inevitable downshift and closing of operations by the Allies on the Somme. Local struggles continued, and the British still launched large attacks at Butte de Warlencourt and along the River Ancre. Only the onset of winter weather finally brought the titanic clash of arms to an end. The BFWWP is now on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/BattlesoftheFirstWorldWarPodcast.
