Forming the westernmost flank of the great wheeling maneuver through Belgium and Northern France that was at the heart of the Schlieffen Plan, von Kluck's army played a vital role. The first battles fought by the British Expeditionary Force, at Mons and Le Cateua, were agaist the First Army, and it was von Kluck's decisions later in the campaign that were held by many to have resulted in the German defeat on the Marne.
