The Primacy of the Soldier in Modern War.

Abstract

All of the foregoing lends emphasis to the proper training and discipline of the man in uniform, and to his vital importance in modern warfare, whether he is going to be involved in an atomic war or a small brushfire campaign. As new weapons and vehicles come into use and the Army becomes more and more mechanically-minded, every man may have to learn a certain number of new techniques of an engineering and mechanical nature. But through it all, regardless of how much specialization may take place, basic soldiers are the standard-bearers for their country and upon their shoulders rests the nation's confidence in a secure future.
