I've heard it said that after the Mutiny of 1917 the French troops were basically told to hold on and wait for the Americans. It was the prospect of the Americans coming that kept them going. I know that General Petain called an end to all offensives. I'd be interested to know whether or not this is true and if it is true, what happens if the Americans do not enter the war?
