Elements of Trench Warfare
Waldron, William H. (William Henry)
Intrenchments; Siege warfare
For each walk a tactical problem has been prepared in blank. This can
be adapted to any terrain that is available.
Following the problem there are a number of tactical situations such as
one would encounter in actual service.
The discussions and explanations cover every phase of the subject under
consideration in a purely practical manner.
A practical solution is then arrived at and set forth.
At the end of the solution to each situation there is inserted a
Director’s Key, which gives the complete synopsis of what has gone
before.
Every officer in the Army should have a copy. It will save a lot of
time preparing for the conduct of Tactical Walks. Every noncommissioned
officer should have a copy and study its contents. By so doing he
prepares himself for the duties that he will be called upon to perform
in the field.
