The Cuneense advanced through Montenegro and reached Dubrovnik at the end of the campaign.

Famous quotes containing the word war:
“[Veterans] feel disappointed, not about the 1914-1918 war but about this war. They liked that war, it was a nice war, a real war a regular war, a commenced war and an ended war. It was a war, and veterans like a war to be a war. They do.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
