Book Description
Excerpt from The Amalgamation of the British Army If we wish to avoid war, we ought to make the most perfect, but at the same time most economical, preparations in the time of peace. The whole theory of our national defence is based on the assumption that all branches of the Service would be capable, at a short notice, of co-operating effectively together. Is that anything more than an assumption ? I hope so. We have mobilized our Army, and though many of the Army Corps are not complete in Artillery, Cavalry, and Engineers, that is a step in the right direction. We, too, have also established, in the Localization Scheme, brigades composed of Regulars, Militia, and Volunteers. But have we in any way identified the Reserve with the Regular forces? I really think we have not, and that, to quote a letter of the Duke of Wellington (then Marquis of Wellesley) whilst in India, writing to Colonel Stevenson, after the treaty with Scindiah in 1804, "Everybody appears to be convinced of the necessity of having an army, but nobody appears to be inclined to adopt the measures which are necessary for that purpose. The same little temporary measures are adopted that have been before practised, and they will equally fail." Our military system shows no elasticity. The success of every modern campaign depends, in a great measure, on the facility and rapidity with which an army can be mobilized and brought upon a war footing.
