Breviary of tactics, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

War is on the news every day. But how do you know what will work in combat? What do soldiers do when things get serious? What factors determine their actions? How does an attack proceed? What is success, and how do soldiers exploit it? Swiss General Hans Frick's pioneering study "Breviary of Tactics" is äshort and succinct theoretical framework for understanding the rules of war.

In addition, Kaj-Gunnar Sievert shares his tactical experience as commander of the Swiss Parachute Recon Company. Christian Väth explains the value of tactics for officer training and its Prussian military tradition. This book provides a succinct introduction to the subject of tactics, and an understanding of how combat is conducted on the modern battlefield - such as the Ukraine War, which is the latest validation of Frick's concepts.

Topics include:

The Compact Art of War
Keep It Simple: Principles of Warfare
Clear Points and Basic Rules
