By noon of the 17th , the 100th Btl had advanced as far as the first of four conical hills that towered over Bruyeres. The 2nd Btl on the right kept pace, driving back two determined counterattacks and launching an attack on Hill "B," second of the four hills. Meanwhile, the 3rd Btl swung quietly into position on the right of the 2nd Btl on the night of the 17th. The photos shows Hill B, once from Hill D and the photo below has been taken near the old Chruch of Bruyere.
