Operational from 1940 to 1944, the Home Guard had 1.5 million local volunteers otherwise ineligible for military service, such as those who were too young or too old to join the regular armed services (regular military service was restricted to those aged 18 to 41) or those in reserved occupations. Excluding those already in the armed services, the civilian police or civil defence, approximately one in five men were volunteers. Their role was to act as a secondary defence force in case of invasion by the forces of Nazi Germany and other Axis powers.[1][2] Home Guard post at Admiralty Arch in central The Home Guard were to try to slow down the advance London, 21 June 1940. of the enemy even by a few hours to give the regular troops time to regroup.

    U N I VE R S IT Y reuiew JA N U A R Y -F E B R U A R Y 1977 The Professional Journal of the United States Ai from the editor's aerie It is with no little astonishment that we receive frequent queries from Air Force personnel asking how they might regularly receive Air University Review. Of course, the cognoscenti know that the Basis of Issue, which we reprint annually, establishes distribution to assure reasonable access for all Air Force personnel. Colonels and above as well as civil service grades GS-16-18 are authorized personal copies. All organizations down to detachment level are authorized distribution on the basis of one copy for each 20 officers. In case of organizations having fewer than 20 officers, any lesser number would qualify, including detachments with as few as one officer. The essential point to remember is that distribution is not automatically accomplished solely on the basis of your eligibility. If you are not already receiving the Review, you must establish your requirement with your servicing Publications Distribution Officer. Our published contributors are, of course, aware that they receive a complimentary subscription for one year, in addition to a cash award that is somewhat more munificent than in past years. And certainly no one is discouraged from subscribing directly to the Government Printing Office, as outlined on the inside back cover. We are presently revising the Basis of Issue with the object of increasing its availability, particularly for individuals engaged in scholarly pursuits and for noncommissioned officers. If we are successful in this revision, we promise to make it known promptly.

    Guerrillas in Our Midst: The Pacific Coast Militia Rangers, 1942-451 P. W HITNEY LACKENBAUER He’s so gaunt and old that he walks like a wishbone. His suit bags. His white mustaches are the “‘Alf and ’Arry” kind. But he topped the rocky ledge ahead of me like a goat. Below us lay the wildest country on this con tinent: British Columbia. Deep can yons, tangled forests, no roads. We’d come up an old Indian trail. “You see, Ma’m,” he said, “the ruddy little Japs could never make it. You’d pick off a hundred yourself from this ledge, - and you could stop for tea, at that … Let ‘em come. Hit’d be the sec ond time I was servin’ ‘Er Majesty.” That’s Victoria to you. He likes to pretend she’s still around be cause he was in her Royal Horse Artillery, Boer War. He’s 75. But a recent Sunday at the Rifle Club he popped the bull’s eye 92 out of 100. He’s never dimmed his eyes with a lot of needless reading.

HIGH SCHDDL AND JUNIOR COLLEGE WE^TWDRTH'S PURPOSE It is the purpose of Wentworth Military Academy to provide the best conditions possible for the all 'round development of worthy boys and young men. To attain this high purpose, the Academy places greatest emphasis upon these four points: First, it is the Academy's aim to assemble only the highest types of students—deserving youths of good parentage—to assure wholesome associations and greater progress. Every pre­ caution is taken to keep undesirable boys—all those that might prove detrimental to others— out of the Academy. Second, to employ only men of highest character and ability for its faculty. It is not enough for a Wentworth faculty member to be merely scholarly and a splendid instructor, hie must also possess a spirit of friendliness and a sincere desire to give kindly help whenever necessary, hie must thoroughly understand the innermost problems of boys—be patient with them—and be ready to serve each boy to the best of his ability. Third, to provide the very best equipment throughout every department to the end that every boy will have all those things necessary to his health and happiness and that none shall want for anything that will help him to make progress. Fourth, to provide a program for each day that will best serve the interests of every student. WENTWDRTH FROM THE AIR No. I. Administration Building, Mess Hall, No. 8.

    PROFESSIONAL READING AND THE EDUCATION OF MILITARY LEADERS By Emmet James McElhatton A thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Public Policy Victoria University of Wellington 2014 1 ABSTRACT Prominent military figures, both contemporary and historical have, through both personal example and their promotion of critical literacy initiatives, emphasised the role of professional reading in the development of the professional wisdom that underpins effective military leadership. While biographical studies hint at a connection between the extracurricular reading habits of notable military figures and the development of their professional wisdom, the majority of studies on military leadership development focus either through the context of experience or on development through the medium of formal educational programmes. Considering the time and resources invested in formal educational programmes, and the highly incremental nature of self-development that makes its utility difficult to measure, it is understandable but not acceptable that continuous, career-long self- development through professional reading receives scant attention. Using a hermeneutically derived conceptual framework as an analytical tool, this research explores the intellectual component of military leadership, as embodied in the idea of the warrior-scholar, and the role the phenomena of reading, text, and canon, play in the development of the cognitive skills – critical, creative, and strategic thinking – necessary for successful leadership in complex institutions and environments. The research seeks to contribute original insights into the role that professional reading actually plays in the intellectual development of military leaders. The research also seeks to determine the extent to which a military canon that embodies professional military wisdom exists, and the relationship that this canon might have on the development of military leaders in the contemporary environment.
