Piercing the Fog of War - The Theory and Practice of Command in the British and German Armies, 1918-1940 - Bok av Martin Samuels - Inbunden

Anglophone and German military literature is fascinated by the Wehrmacht's command system, especially the practice of Auftragstaktik. There are many descriptions of the doctrine, and examinations of its historical origins, yet few consider the different approaches to command in the context of a fundamental characteristic of warfare - friction.

Steel Wall at Arnhem - The Destruction of 4 Parachute Brigade 19 September 1944 - Bok av David Truesdale - Häftad

The deployment of the British 1st Airborne Division somewhere in Europe prior to the end of the war was indeed a case of ¿coins burning holes in the pockets of SHAEF¿. The Allied High Command was anxious to commit to battle a division that, while it contained some elite units, was not fully trained, had carried out only one divisional exercise and contained several officers who were either unfit or unsuitable for airborne command. On Monday 18 September 1944, the aircraft and gliders carrying the..

Camouflage, Insignia and Tactical Markings of the Aircraft of the Red Army Air Force in 1941 - Bok av Mikhail Timin - Häftad

Camouflage, Insignia and Tactical Markings of the Aircraft of the Red Army Air Force in 1941 - Bok av Mikhail Timin - Häftad

The Soviet Red Army command attached great importance to military camouflage. Following the Civil War of 1918-1920, camouflage issues were the subject of careful study. This led to a number of measures that involved the armed forces. Thus military aviation was not overlooked. Along with the camouflaging of airfields and installations, attempts were made to make aircraft as invisible as possible both on the ground and in the sky. This was done by applying painted schemes, the requirements for which..

The Polish Resettlement Corps 1946-1949 - Britain'S Polish Forces - Bok av Wieslaw Rogalski - Häftad

For Queen and Company - Vignettes of the Irish Soldier in the Indian Mutiny - Bok av David Truesdale - Häftad

For Queen and Company - Vignettes of the Irish Soldier in the Indian Mutiny - Bok av David Truesdale - Häftad

This book records the actions of those Irish soldiers (and others) who were awarded the Victoria Cross in the event known to the British public in 1857 as 'The Indian Mutiny'. Since then, revisionist historians have applied other names to what occurred: a 'war of independence', 'a revolt', or 'a great rebellion'... none of these are accurate for the events that began in Meerut on Sunday, 10 May 1857: it was a mutiny; when soldiers refused a lawful command, it was a mutiny. Those former members of..

To Conquer and to Keep - Bok av Yuhan Kim - Häftad

To Conquer and to Keep - Bok av Yuhan Kim - Häftad

Napoleon once famously remarked 'If I had had two Marshals like Suchet I should not only have conquered Spain, but have kept it'. Louis-Gabriel Suchet was one of the few French commanders to leave the Peninsular War with his reputation enhanced, and the only one to win his marshal's baton in that war. When Suchet was first appointed to take command of French forces in Aragon in 1809 as a général de division, the French were on the verge of losing control over that province. Through a string of..
