Note 50 — THE ATTEMPT TO BREAK THROUGH SOUTH OF YPRES
G. C. (Graeme Chamley) Wynne translation
If the flooding of the country by the Belgians had barred the further advance of the Germans along the coast, it had equally covered the German extreme right against any chance of a counter-attack, and enabled them to divert the III Reserve Corps to the south; the Belgians, however, were in no position to deflect any forces to the assistance of their Allies.
