Title: British army 1912 Manouevres Report
Post by: Steve J on 05 March 2021, 02:28:45 PM
A fascinating report on the British 1912 manouevres can be found on the following links:

A report on 1912 Foreign Army manouevres can also be purchased from here and looks to be very interesting reading:

Given I am currently reading Max Hastings account of the first year of WWI, the above should be interesting in light of what happened a few years after they took place. Also the British manouevre is just begging to be wargamed.
