Extract
from Encylopaedia
Britannica (follow link for full article):
Robert Nivelle, in full Robert Georges Nivelle, (born October
15, 1856, Tulle, France—died March 23, 1924, Paris), commander
in chief of the French armies on the Western Front for five months
in World War I. His career was wrecked by the failure of his offensive
in the spring of 1917.
Nivelle
graduated from the École Polytechnique in 1878, served
in Indochina, Algeria, and China as an artillery officer, and
was made a general of brigade in October 1914 after World War
I began. In 1915 he rose to command a division and then the III
Corps, which helped stem the German offensive at the Battle of
Verdun early in 1916. In May 1916 he succeeded General Philippe
Pétain as commander of the Second Army at Verdun. His use
of creeping artillery barrages in two dazzlingly successful French
counterattacks there (October, December 1916) enabled the French
to retake nearly all the ground gained by the Germans over the
previous six months.
That
December Nivelle was promoted over many senior officers to succeed
General Joseph Joffre as commander in chief of the French armies.
He then proclaimed that his methods at Verdun could win the war.
David Lloyd George, the British prime minister, heartily subscribed
to Nivelle’s advocacy of frontal assaults carried out in
close coordination with massive artillery bombardments, and he
placed the British armies in France under Nivelle’s command
for his great offensive. Nivelle, however, steadily lost the confidence
of his own chief subordinates, and his final offensive on the
Aisne front (April 1917) failed to break through German lines
and cost France 120,000 casualties. The next month there were
widespread mutinies in the French armies. On May 15, 1917, Nivelle
was replaced by Pétain as commander in chief, and in December
1917 he was transferred to North Africa.

Extract

Volume 2, page 479-480:
CAPTAIN
CECIL FRANCIS HARVEY TWINING, 3rd (RESERVE) (attd. 1st) BATTN.
HAMPSHIRE REGIMENT, was the eldest son of Mr. and Mrs.
Herbert Haynes Twining, of 48, Ennismore Gardens, S.W.
He was born on the 2nd August, 1885, at 7, Stanhope Street, Hyde
Park, London, W., and was educated at Hazelwood, Limpsfleld, and
at Eton. He received his commission as 2nd Lieutenant in the 3rd
Battalion Hampshire Regiment from the Militia in April, 1904,
becoming Lieutenant in November, 1908, and Captain in September.
1914. For active service in the War with Germany Captain Twining
was attached to the 1st Battalion of his Regiment, which he joined
at the Aisne. He was wounded at Messines in a night attack on
the 1st November, 1914, and was invalided home, but rejoined his
Battalion in March, 1915, and was killed in the second battle
of Ypres on the 3rd May, 1915. He was buried four miles north-east
of Ypres, about a mile from Zonnebeke.
A brother officer writes of him: "His death was a great shock
to all of us in the company, as he was loved by officers and men
alike. The men of his company were very fond of him and would
have followed him anywhere ; his thought was always for their
safety, and I don't think he paid enough attention to his own."
He was a member of various cricket clubs, including the M.C.C.,
Free Foresters, Eton Ramblers, Butterflies, and Hampshire Hogs.
He was also a member of the Conservative and Prince's Clubs, and
of the Stoke Poges and East Brighton Golf Clubs.
Captain Twining married Dorothy Elizabeth, daughter of Charles
E. N. Charrington, of Frensham Hill, Surrey.
