I te ahiahi o te 29 o Hōngongoi 1918, ka tae mai te 119th Field Artillery ki te rohe o Picardy o France, ki te hauauru o Chateau-Thierry, hei waahanga o te 32nd Infantry Division i whakarereke i te American 3rd Infantry Division i te raina o mua i ahu mai i Roncheres ki Fere-en-Tardenois. Koinei te tīmatanga o te Aisne-Marne
Ka kīia hoki ko te Pakanga Tuarua o te Marne. I te 14:10 i te 30 o Hurae 1918, i tiimata te 119th Field Artillery i te pupuhi o te ahi ki te Bois de Grimpettes (Grimpettes Woods) i te tonga o te kainga o Cierges. E rua tekau meneti i muri mai, i te 14:30, ka huri te 119th Field Artillery ki te pupuhi pupuhi kia ahei ai nga waahanga hiko mai i te 32nd Infantry Division ki te whai tata i muri o te raina o te pupuhi pupuhi. I haere tonu te pupuhi o te pu i te ao katoa, tae noa ki te po. I te 31 o Hurae 1918, i whakaekehia e te 32nd Infantry Division a Cierges me tetahi pukepuke kotahi kiromita (5/8-maero) ki te rawhiti o te kainga o Sergy me te tautoko o te ahi tonu mai i te 119th Field Artillery. Whai muri i te whawhai kaha, ko te 32nd Infantry Division, i neke atu i te maero, i pakaru ki nga waahi nui e rua i roto i te raina Tiamana hou o te aukati, ka mau ki a raatau. I riro a Reddy Farm me Hill 230 i te 1 o Akuhata 1918, me te tautoko o te ahi kaha mai i te 119th Field Artillery. I tere te whakatutukitanga i te 2 me te 3 o Akuhata. I te 10:30 i te 3 o Akuhata 1918, ko nga waahanga matua o te 32nd Infantry Division i ahu whakamua ki te haurua kiromita (he neke atu i te 1/4-maero) ki te tonga-ki te hauauru o te kainga o Saint-Gilles i reira i mau ai ratou ki Resson Farm. I roto i te rua noa nga ra, i ahu whakamua te 32nd Infantry Division mai i Reddy Farm ka mau ki nga kainga o Villome me Dravegny, ka tae ki nga taha o Saint-Gilles me te ahi kaha mai i te 119th Field Artillery.
