But they also tell much more, such things as charging over the rock fence,
advancing to batteries (plural), carrying the enemy's position, succeeding
in taking the heights, holding the key to the enemy's stronghold, making a
successful charge, storming and taking the crest, cutting the enemy's line
in two, etc. >>
