  • French Armed Forces Update April 2020
    French Armed Forces Update April 2020 This paper is not an official publication from the French Armed Forces. It provides an update on the French military operations and main activities. The French Defense Attaché Office has drafted it in accordance with open publications. The French Armed Forces are heavily deployed both at home and overseas. On the security front, the terrorist threat is still assessed as high in France and operation “Sentinelle” (Guardian) continues. Overseas, the combat units are extremely active against a determined enemy and the French soldiers are constantly adapting their courses of action and their layout plans to the threat. Following the Covid-19 outbreak, the French Armed Forces have adjusted their layout where necessary while applying enhanced pressure on terrorist groups in Sahel. In this particular situation, the French Army Chief of Staff reminded his top three priorities: continue the current operations, support the population and the civil services and preserve readiness (human resources / training). 1. OPERATIONS DEPLOYMENT OF THE FRENCH ARMED FORCES1 1 Army, Air Force, Navy and Gendarmerie. Page 1 OPERATIONAL NEWS OPERATION BARKHANE: Global Sub-Saharan Anti-Terrorist Mission Operation Barkhane, spanning five countries in the Sahel region of North Africa, started in the beginning of August 2014 after the completion of Operation Serval. With its main base in the Chadian capital N'Djamena, it is actively present in Burkina Faso, Mali, Mauritania, Chad and Niger. In the aftermath of the Pau summit (January 13), France completed a reinforcement of the BARKHANE force with a supplementary 600 men size force. This additional combat power allowed France and its G5 Sahel partners (Mali, Chad, Burkina Faso, Niger, Mauritania) to intensify their common efforts in the Liptako Gourma sector, commonly named “the region of three borders".

TJNIT ORGAI{ISATION 7gl4 - 1g1g ROYAL HORSEARTILLERY ROYAL FMLDARTILI,ERY ROYAL GARRISON ARTILLERY MILITARY EACT SHEET No.7 By Ronald Clifton February 1996 CHAPTER 1: THE INDIVIDUAL SOLDIER CLOTHING In the field, the standard dress for all ranks was the khaki clothing known as 'service dress'. This consisted of a peaked cap, jacket with patch pockets, and breeches with puttees (leather leggings for officers), ankle boots, and spurs for mounted men. Dismounted men had no spurs and wore trousers instead of breeches. A special Army Order dated 5 August 1914 ordered the wearing of service dress by all ranks for all purposes, with the exception of the Household Cavaby and Foot Guards in London, and from that date Full Dress became virtually obsolete. A spare pair of boots, spare suit of service dress (excluding the cap) and spare set of underwear for each man was stored in his kitbag and left at the base in the care of the company, squadron or battery storeman. For officers these items were packed in a leather valise carried in the transport vehicles with the divisional train. The soldier also had with him a further spare pair of socks and a knitted woollen headdress known as a 'cap, comforter', and a greatcoat. For dismounted men this was normally carried in the pack: for mounted men, rolled behind the saddle. Great emphasis was placed in the importance of clothing, especially boots, being properly fitted. The Clothing Regulations contained detailed instructions for measuring and fitting men with clothing, especially recruits whose clothes were ordered to be fitted with an allowance for future growth.

  • “If Ever Men Stayed by Their Guns”
    “If Ever Men Stayed By Their Guns” Leadership in the 1st and 11th Corps Artillery on the First Day of the Battle of Gettysburg Bert Barnett During the Battle of Gettysburg, the roar of cannon mingled with the rattle of small arms during each phase of the engagement. Prominent among the Union forces desperately holding ground on July 1 were the artillery batteries of the 1st and 11th corps of the Army of the Potomac. In the face of heavy enemy fire from both Confederate infantry and artillery, these units repeatedly demonstrated their effectiveness, when well led, against the pressures of mounting numbers. Although ultimately unsuccessful in their defensive stand outside the town, these batteries provided valuable covering fire for their retreating infantry elements, helping to delay the Confederates. What follows is a close-up look at the differing levels of leadership ability within the 1st and 11th corps artillery, and how it shaped the outcome of the first day of battle, July 1, 1863. After the debacle of the Union disaster at Chancellorsville in May 1863, the Army of the Potomac was reorganized, and the artillery command structure was streamlined. Henceforth, all batteries in each corps were placed directly under the control of a single corps artillery chief and no longer attached to divisional commanders. These corps artillery chiefs reported directly to their respective corps commanders, but were also responsive to the overall chief of artillery, Brigadier General Henry Jackson Hunt.1 Hunt, an 1839 graduate of the United States Military Academy, had served in the artillery during the Mexican War and was twice brevetted, gaining the rank of major.
