Show What Foch Told General Who Couldn't Hold Line There is a fine story being told of Marshal Foch. One day during the last war when the position of things was critical and further retreat would have endangered the whole line, one of his divisional generals sent him a message saying that he could not continue to hold a certain cer-tain line of trenches which had become untenable. In reply, the marshal sent him this message: "If you cannot hold on, you must advance." It is a great motto for life, and the power to advance in such circumstances cir-cumstances is where the great test comes. sBHBBaBBaaBBBBaBnsxSRHSHaaajaBaBBasnBaBBBaaai |
