Battle of Moreuil Wood
The Battle of Moreuil Wood (March 30, 1918) took place on the banks of the Arve River in France, where the 3rd British Cavalry Brigade with the attached Canadian Cavalry Brigade attacked and forced the German 243rd Division to withdraw from the Moreuil Woods, a commanding position on the river bank. This defeat at the hands of the Allies contributed to the halt of the springtime German offensive of 1918.
