  • The Night Operation on the Passchendaele Ridge, 2Nd December 1917
    Centre for First World War Studies A Moonlight Massacre: The Night Operation on the Passchendaele Ridge, 2nd December 1917 by Michael Stephen LoCicero Thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of History and Cultures College of Arts & Law June 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract The Third Battle of Ypres was officially terminated by Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig with the opening of the Battle of Cambrai on 20 November 1917. Nevertheless, a comparatively unknown set-piece attack – the only large-scale night operation carried out on the Flanders front during the campaign – was launched twelve days later on 2 December. This thesis, a necessary corrective to published campaign narratives of what has become popularly known as „Passchendaele‟, examines the course of events from the mid-November decision to sanction further offensive activity in the vicinity of Passchendaele village to the barren operational outcome that forced British GHQ to halt the attack within ten hours of Zero. A litany of unfortunate decisions and circumstances contributed to the profitless result.

    OBRONNOŚĆ. Zeszyty Naukowe 1(9)/2014 Modernizacja techniczna SZ RP od 1990 roku… ISSN 2299-2316 AUTORZY Anna Piekart [email protected] Michał Chałupka [email protected] MODERNIZACJA TECHNICZNA SZ RP OD 1990 ROKU – UZBROJENIE I WYPOSAŻENIE INDYWIDUALNE ŻOŁNIERZY NA PRZYKŁADZIE WOJSK LĄDOWYCH I WOJSK SPECJALNYCH. DOKONANIA I PERSPEKTYWY NA PRZYSZŁOŚĆ Modernizacja techniczna Sił Zbrojnych Rzeczypospolitej Polskiej jest ciągłym, wieloetapowym procesem, którego podstawowym zadaniem jest wymiana wysłużonego uzbrojenia i sprzętu wojskowego (UiSW). Jest to działanie niezbędne do realizacji aktualnych i przyszłych celów strategicz- nych państwa. Data, którą można uznać za początek zintensyfikowanej modernizacji wojska, jest rok 1990, kiedy to zmieniła się sytuacja geopoli- tyczna. Rozpoczęły się wtedy zmiany mające na celu integrację z Soju- szem Północnoatlantyckim, niestety jednak nadal widać w naszym wojsku sprzęt pochodzący zza wschodniej granicy. Najwyraźniej jest to widoczne w indywidualnym wyposażeniu żołnierzy. Motorem napędowym pierwszych zmian było podpisanie w 1994 roku programu Partnerstwo dla Pokoju, którego głównym celem było spełnienie przez Polskę standardów państw członkowskich. Dążenie do pełnej inte- gracji wymusiło na naszym kraju wymianę i modernizację uzbrojenia i sprzętu wojskowego na taki, który spełniał wymogi STANAG-ów1. Jednym z głównych zadań było na przykład ustandaryzowanie broni do amunicji używanej w strukturach NATO 5,56x45 mm2. Od momentu pełnoprawnego członkostwa Polska aktywnie zaangażowała się w działalność Paktu, biorąc m.in. udział w misjach międzynarodowych: stabilizacyjnej w Iraku i ISAF Afganistan. Charakter działań i doświadczenia wyniesione przez Polskie Kontyngenty Wojskowe wykazały również konieczność modernizacji posia- danego sprzętu do aktualnych wymagań pola walki. Dzięki wymogom i wnioskom z prowadzonych operacji przyjmowano w kolejnych latach plany modernizacji Sił Zbrojnych RP.

  • The Evolution of British Tactical and Operational Tank Doctrine and Training in the First World War
    The evolution of British tactical and operational tank doctrine and training in the First World War PHILIP RICHARD VENTHAM TD BA (Hons.) MA. Thesis submitted for the award of the degree of Master of Philosophy by the University of Wolverhampton October 2016 ©Copyright P R Ventham 1 ABSTRACT Tanks were first used in action in September 1916. There had been no previous combat experience on which to base tactical and operational doctrine for the employment of this novel weapon of war. Training of crews and commanders was hampered by lack of vehicles and weapons. Time was short in which to train novice crews. Training facilities were limited. Despite mechanical limitations of the early machines and their vulnerability to adverse ground conditions, the tanks achieved moderate success in their initial actions. Advocates of the tanks, such as Fuller and Elles, worked hard to convince the sceptical of the value of the tank. Two years later, tanks had gained the support of most senior commanders. Doctrine, based on practical combat experience, had evolved both within the Tank Corps and at GHQ and higher command. Despite dramatic improvements in the design, functionality and reliability of the later marks of heavy and medium tanks, they still remained slow and vulnerable to ground conditions and enemy counter-measures. Competing demands for materiel meant there were never enough tanks to replace casualties and meet the demands of formation commanders. This thesis will argue that the somewhat patchy performance of the armoured vehicles in the final months of the war was less a product of poor doctrinal guidance and inadequate training than of an insufficiency of tanks and the difficulties of providing enough tanks in the right locations at the right time to meet the requirements of the manoeuvre battles of the ‘Hundred Days’.

  • The German Army, Vimy Ridge and the Elastic Defence in Depth in 1917
    Journal of Military and Strategic VOLUME 18, ISSUE 2 Studies “Lessons learned” in WWI: The German Army, Vimy Ridge and the Elastic Defence in Depth in 1917 Christian Stachelbeck The Battle of Arras in the spring of 1917 marked the beginning of the major allied offensives on the western front. The attack by the British 1st Army (Horne) and 3rd Army (Allenby) was intended to divert attention from the French main offensive under General Robert Nivelle at the Chemin des Dames (Nivelle Offensive). 1 The French commander-in-chief wanted to force the decisive breakthrough in the west. Between 9 and 12 April, the British had succeeded in penetrating the front across a width of 18 kilometres and advancing around six kilometres, while the Canadian corps (Byng), deployed for the first time in closed formation, seized the ridge near Vimy, which had been fiercely contested since late 1914.2 The success was paid for with the bloody loss of 1 On the German side, the battles at Arras between 2 April and 20 May 1917 were officially referred to as Schlacht bei Arras (Battle of Arras). In Canada, the term Battle of Vimy Ridge is commonly used for the initial phase of the battle. The seizure of Vimy ridge was a central objective of the offensive and was intended to secure the protection of the northern flank of the 3rd Army. 2 For detailed information on this, see: Jack Sheldon, The German Army on Vimy Ridge 1914-1917 (Barnsley: Pen&Sword Military, 2008), p. 8. Sheldon's book, however, is basically a largely indiscriminate succession of extensive quotes from regimental histories, diaries and force files from the Bavarian War Archive (Kriegsarchiv) in Munich.
