Let the motto be always, but here especially: "DASH UNDER DISCIPLINE." QUESTIONS. The following questions cover the principles of combat in open warfare. These principles have been supplemented rather than changed in the light of experience since 1914. In their original form, as given in this book, they still may be considered as fundamental.
