Excerpt from Battle Orders I have noticed that in all our applicatory work the battle order is less studied than any other. Among our young officers who study tactics at all seriously, there are few who find any difficulty in issuing orders to set a division on the march or place it in cantonments; but there are not so many who can give battle orders quickly, from the saddle. Generally the only chance an officer serving with troops has to practice this is in the war game; but, as a rule, the game is chiefly devoted to the preliminaries of action, and there is no time for a full discussion of what is really the most important thing, the action itself. Besides, actual combat games require much greater experience and skill in the director than do games dealing with reconnaissance, advance, and the preliminaries of the action. I was therefore very glad to adopt a suggestion made by some of my younger comrades, and to take up, in a series of exercises on the map, a number of points in modem combat, laying special stress upon technique. For the sake of completeness, it seemed desirable to take up the battle orders of medical officers, according to the new manual for the Medical Department, and to treat the somewhat neglected subject of administrative circulars. The following collection of orders, etc., grew out of these exercises. They are the result of a long series of informal discussions, and make no pretense of being models. In fact, it was not thought desirable to give models, for they easily lead to a sealed pattern, and anything that puts form above substance is bad. The style of an order is always an expression of the commanding officer's individuality. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The battle against the Lankies has been won. Earth seems safe. Peacetime military? Not on your life. It's been four years since Earth threw its full military prowess against the Lanky incursion. Humanity has been yanked back from the abyss of extinction. The solar system is at peace. For now. The future for Major Andrew Grayson of the Commonwealth Defense Corps and his wife, Halley? Flying desk duty on the front. No more nightmares of monstrous things. No more traumas to the mind and body. But when an offer comes down from above, Andrew has to make a choice: continue pushing papers into retirement, or jump right back into the fight? What's a podhead to do? The remaining Lankies may have retreated in fear, but the threat isn't over. They need to be wiped out for good before they strike again. That'll take a new offensive deployment. Aboard an Avenger warship, Andrew and the special tactics team under his command embark on the ultimate search-and-destroy mission. This time, it'll be on Lanky turf. No big heroics. No unnecessary risks. Just a swift hit-and-run raid in the hostile Capella system. Blow the alien seed ships into oblivion and get the hell back to Earth. At least, that's the objective. But when does anything in war go according to plan?

FRONTOVIK was the name that the veterans who served in the Soviet Armed Forces across the Great Patiotic War, between 1941 and 1945, were knowed. The purpose of this FRONTOVIK is to reflect the structure and deployment of the Red Army throughout the year 1943. This work is part of a global montly study from June 1941 to September 1945. The main sources for this study were the documents published by the Department of Military History of the Ministry of Defence of the Soviet Union in 1972, containing data from January 1 to December 1, 1943, and the works of Colonel David M. Glantz, along with numerous secondary sources. All the images, illustrations, tactical symbols and maps were made by the author as a personal tribute to the veterans that served in those units.
