Best Answer

The Battle of the Argonne Forest, also known as the Meuse-Argonne Offensive, took place in three phases between September 26 and November 11, 1918. It included five battles that can otherwise be considered separately:

  • the Battle of Somme-Py
  • the Battle of Saint-Thierry
  • the Battle of Montfaucon
  • the Battle of Chesne
  • the Advance on the Meuse

It is often cited as the last major Allied and American offensive of the war, as the Allies were still advancing into German-held areas when the armistice was announced. It is also cited as claiming more US lives than any other battle then or since, which is to be expected given the duration of the operations and the number of American troops involved (250,000+). Included in the deaths were casualties from the Spanish Flu (influenza), which spread across Europe beginning in June 1918.
