H25117 – Instructor's handbook of fieldcraft & battle drill 1942 – This is the 1942 provisional manual for instructors of Fieldcraft and Battle Drill. The concept of battle drills was only just beginning to appear in the training schedules of British infantry units, and this manual is the first that appeared. It covers Fieldcraft in detail, and then looks at section and platoon battle drills for the attack. It also covers the platoon in offensive defense. Further sections explain company battledrills, and carrier section battledrills. It ends with an analysis of the German and British methods in attack and defense, and a short section on dogs in war. This is a rare find, but is valuable in that the author(s) had experience in the Spanish Civil War or in France 1940, and were aware of the problems facing the British army in taking on the Germans, who had much more modern and effective battle drills at the start of the Second World War. A valuable book, which eventually led to the 1944 infantry training manuals (also reprinted by us). £20.00 GBP
