Wl’l‘ll , THE . AMERICAN
ARMY [N FRANCE, Sunday,
March 31 (By The Associated
l’ress).~(leruian army leaders are
exceedingly anxious to obtain in-
formation» concerning the most
minute details of the American
army. This is, disclosed by a can
lured German~ document issued to
the Fifth Bavarian Landwehr Iii-
fantry Brigade, and which in-
structs every observer and patrol
to do his or its best.._“to bring in
information about the new ene-
my." The results obtained are to
be. added to ofllcial reports.
The captured document starts
olit by giving‘details that are
known. such as those regarding
the American uniform, and adds
that the infantry is equipped par-
tially with English rifles and that
the artillery probably has French
guns. it says Americandroops
still continue training in France,
adding: . .
“Nothing is known as yet about
the methods of lighting or leader-
ship." -
“From the preceding meagre
details." it continues, “it is evi-
dciit that sectors K and M have
.thc honorable task of obtaining an
lnllll'll information as possible on
particular features of American
fighting and ontpoisi tactics. This
will then be used for extending the
information bulletin. Any obser-
vation or idcrlfltlcatiou, however
insignificant, may be of the great-
est valne'in connection with infor~
motion already at hand."
_ Attention then is drawn to “sclfy
evident questions" which observ-
crs, patrols and outposts are ex-
pected to fliid answers for. Under
the heading “The Enemy’s Securio
ty." the document says:
“Arc sentry sis sentry posts

trol or do they fall backf Do they
give barrage fire signalst When
arc the reliefs and what is thi- be-
havior during them! Do they have
any light signals other than the
French ones?”
. Under “Enemy Patrols," the
document asks details
"Strength, Methods of Advance,
Behavior on,Meeting and Initia-
tive." These questions come ttii
tier the heading, "Behavior."
“Are the Americans careful and
cautiousi Are they careful or

are the times and sounds of reliefst
It is said that used infantry and
machine gun bullets, unexploded
