  Battle of Cambrai - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Noted for the first successful use of tanks, the British attack demonstrated that the Hindenburg Line could be penetrated, while the German counter showed the value of new infantry tactics that would later be part of the Kaiserschlacht.
Certain newly developed tactics would be employed, including the use of air interdiction and mixed infantry and tank formations.
The Germans intended to employ the new tactics of a short, intense period of shelling followed by a rapid assault using Hutier infiltration tactics, leading elements attacking in groups rather than waves and bypassing strong opposition.
