Recruit Manual (Classic Reprint)

George C. Thorpe

4.9/5 (30708 ratings)

Description:Excerpt from Recruit Manual The process of learning to be a private soldier - and so be "quit of recruit days" - should not be long if attention is given to essentials. The traditional experience of the recruit is that he goes through a course of intensive exercises but does not see in print a description of the precise movements his body performs. Most men are what the psychologists call 'visualists they learn more quickly what they see than what they hear. If the recruit has a manual to which he can turn after drill, his training will be expedited. The elements of the recruit's training come from several branches of military art: infantry drill, description of rifle and its ballistics, signalling, marksmanship, "first aid" for the distressed, military law and regulations, laws of war, customs of the service, field engineering, etc. Few recruits have textbooks covering any of these branches. With his pack of sixty or seventy pounds to carry, the recruit is not looking for a military library. This Manual is a compilation of selections pertinent to recruit training. The first twenty sections are founded upon experience and custom. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
