Monday, September 28, 1914.



The Germans began bombarding the fortress protecting Antwerp.

The French stopped the German advance around Arras.

Cpl. Grault had a bad day.


Grault was a French reservist who attempted to sell the plans for the Eiffel Tower wireless station to the German, and was therefore stripped of his rank and paraded before his cohorts.

The Germans scuttled the SMS Cormoran, SMS Iltis, SMS Luchs, and SMS Tiger off the coast of Tsingtau, China.
