The author deals with the general situation on the frontline in the autumn of 1917, when the Italian troops retreated behind the Piava River after the defeat at Kobarida. In the spring of 1918, the Austro-Hungarian key command of the Army started preparing the new offensive, starting from 15 June 1918. Within the 14th infantry division, the operation was also attended by the 71st infantry regiment, where a lot of Slovaks were fighting. Its activity was captured in the war journal deposited in the Military Archive in Vienna. The published part of the journal is delimited by the dates of 15 June to 22 June 1918, when the Austro-Hungarian units retreated after the failure of the offensive.
