This is one of the few single events of the war that seems irretrievable, that offers no ray of hope or consolation. Even should Kerensky succeed in rallying the Army to his support and reestablishing a new government in Moscow, it would be impossible to be of active assistance to the Allies with the revolutionary focus at Petrograd outflanking the Russian positions...
