With the multiple choice answers - did anybody get 'Both statements are incorrect' with regard to Question 2? Or am I just being dumb?

IIRC Verdun was not captured by the french. I said only statement 2 is correct.
As Statement 1 was incorrect, they didn't gain more territory.

verdun - 'voie sacree!' and they shall not pass, dey didn't

Explain. What was question 2 again - Germany took Verdun in 1918.

Some people say it's true because it didn't show it on the map. I distinctly remember it saying "With references to Statement 1 and 2", not the sources.. So the people who used the map might have got the question wrong?

It's just sources. It confused a lot of people; because they assumed it said "In accordance to source 1 and 2" instead of "Statements 1 and 2". Heheh, sneaky sneaky BoS.

so that's what they said, right?

source 1(a) has nothing to do with source 2 (b)

Yeah, in 1918. They 'captured' Verdun in 1918.
They lost it in 1918 as well. Because pretty much what happened was that Germany lost it in 1918 as well (1918 was the end of WWI). They weren't referring to the sources. Such a sneaky question, bad luck mate.
