A propos de cet article

".Although the Army advances to battle under its selected leaders, in the last resort it often becomes a man versus man struggle, the man being alone and unaided. On the wide from of battle it is not always known where the final struggles are taking place, and it is not known to those who are waging them whether their efforts in their own particular locality will or will not avail in the "sum of things." With mechanisation this picture changes somewhat. There is now the tank crew, whole and indivisible under its leader. But this only means that the power of the individual soldier to win or lose the battle is now become the power of a unit."Ex military library stock so expect to see some markings and sparse annotations in the text. Binder in good condition. Some age wear and sticker marks. No Dust jacket. Quick flickthrough of text shows little in the way of annotation, though pages are browned around the edges. No other issues of significance other than initial library stamp/page removal. Wartime quality paper. Overall acceptable to good condition. 1942 edition. Quick dispatch. Many thanks for looking and supporting independents.
