Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Citizen Soldiers: Essays Towards the Improvement of the Volunteer Force In re-issuing these essays after the lapse of ten years, I have little to add and nothing to unsay. Since 1883, some of the changes I proposed have been made, and others have been caricatured. The standard of shooting required for efficiency has been raised. The drill book has been simplified, and far too frequently altered. The war game has occasionally been practised, and very commonly misapplied. The volunteers have received a great deal more money from Government. Elaborate arrangements have been made for mobilisation, and the equipment has been improved. But the force is still unfit for war; the essentials have been neglected. Exactitude in elementary drill, intelligence and suppleness in skirmishing, have not become common.
