This is very true. It was the British/Commonwealth which carried the victory in this particular battle...their morale carried them through it. However, in terms of training it would have to be the American army.

The men leaving the trenches are thought to be belonged to the Royal Newfoundland Regiment. The RNR were from the small island commonwealth nation of Newfoundland (before it became a Canadian province). After this battle, only 10% of their ranks were available for roll call the next day. An entire generation of young men lost in that single battle.

I remember seeing the one that didnt make it out of the trench in a history book.

they had a few films of it, it was considered bad propaganda to show them though because so many were killed in front of the cameras, so they staged the scenes shown instead.

I never did.
