Here's what happened on September 13, 1914:

  • Battle of the Aisne Begins in World War I The Battle of the Aisne marks a critical early engagement in World War I, where German and French forces clash along the Aisne River in northern France. This battle represents a pivotal moment in the war's initial mobile phase, as both sides attempt to gain strategic advantage.
  • Battle of Mons: British Expeditionary Force Stands Firm At the Battle of Mons, approximately 70,000 British Expeditionary Force (BEF) soldiers courageously confront a German force twice their size. Despite being significantly outnumbered, the BEF demonstrates remarkable resilience and tactical skill.
  • First Battle of the Aisne Concludes The First Battle of the Aisne concludes without a decisive outcome, highlighting the war's emerging stalemate and the challenges of mobile warfare that would soon transform into trench warfare.
  • Australian and South African Colonial Invasions In a coordinated colonial action, Australian forces occupy German New Guinea, while South African troops simultaneously invade German South-West Africa. These operations reflect the global nature of World War I and the colonial tensions of the era.
  • South African Troops Engage in German South-West Africa South African forces initiate military operations in German South-West Africa (modern Namibia) by launching an assault on the Ramansdrift police station. This action represents part of the broader colonial conflicts emerging from World War I's global theater.
