Sedan;
SOLDIERS pi: TILE GEratAN
I have a deeply felt desire -to unite with
you in celebrating the day on which. ten
years ago, the grace of Almighty. God ac-
corded to the German arme one of the mbst
glorious victories in the history of the
world. To those wile at the time
already belonged to the army I recall
to mind the serious- sensations' with
which we entered into. that war with an
army knoven to us for- its -distinguished
qualities, but also the universal enthueiasm
and. lofty feelieg arising from the know-
ledge that all Germanprinces and peoples
closely united stood up for the honor of
the German Fatherland. I remind you of
the first days of a,e.xieus expectation, of
the rapid. succession of victories; df the
news of Weissenburg,Worth and Spicheren ;
of the Metz days, of Beaumont, and 'how,
finally; -at Sedan, the decisive blow was
dealt in a manner fer exceeding our boldest
hopes and fondest expectations:: I also
reniin-d you, with feelings of the WaTIDCSt
gratitude; of the highlyedeserving Men who
led you -in that glorious time ; and, last of
all, I remind you of the .geievoas
terly-nionened saerifices- with which we
achieved our wicteri-ea. It Was a great
time we lived throaglt ten years age the
