These Task Forces were therefore ad hoc command structures, made necessary by the rapid expansion of 6e DLB from a six-regiment formation to the equivalent of sixteen regiments! I don’t have any information on who commanded these Task Forces, nor how the HQs were formed and organised. My best guess is that additional HQ & Staff elements were sent to 6e DLB from other formations in Force d’Action Rapide – France’s rapid-reaction corps, of which 6e DLB was a part. (b) 6e DLB was placed under the command of US XVIII (Airborne) Corps for Operation Desert Sabre, and operated alongside US 82nd Airborne Division on the extreme left flank of the operation. The division penetrated 100 miles into Iraq and secured Al-Salman airbase. Various units from 82nd Airborne Division and XVIII (Airborne) Corps were placed under the division’s command at various times – the first time that US units had been under French command for over half a century.

    French Orders of Battle & TO&Es 1980-1989 v2.2 By R Mark Davies for Battlefront: First Echelon (a) 1st French Army, with its headquarters at Strassbourg, on the Franco-German border, was the main field headquarters L’Armée de Terre controlling operations in support of NATO in West Germany, as well as defending France. Although France was not officially part of NATO’s command structure, there was an understanding, formalised by regular joint exercises in West Germany, that France would go to the aid of NATO, should the Warsaw Pact 1er Armée Française (abf) attack. To that end, the Headquarters and two divisions of II (Fr) Corps were permanently stationed in West Germany, with the wartime mission of supporting NATO’s US-led Central Army Group (CENTAG). III (Fr) Corps, based in western France, had I (Fr) Corps (a) the wartime mission of supporting the British-led NORTHAG. I (Fr) Corps, with one division permanently stationed in West Germany, was 1st French Army’s reserve and counter- penetration formation. II (Fr) Corps (a) (b) There is some suggestion that 1st French Army might have become a new SOUTHAG in wartime; controlling operations in the Austrian and Czech border regions. Allied formations would III (Fr) Corps (a) also possibly have been assigned – most likely the West German II (Ge) Corps, which conducted a major exercise in Bavaria under command of 1st French Army in 1987.

  • 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.

Our deepest sympathies go to his wife and his family. Dr Bossdorf joined Report Verlag in 2006, became its Publishing Director in 2007 and later was appointed Managing Direc- tor. In addition, he was Editor-in-Chief of the magazine "Strategie & Technik", which evolved from the traditional "Soldat und Technik" publication. As a result of the merger of Report Verlag with E.S. Mittler & Sohn publishing house, that created Mittler Report Verlag in 2012, the magazi- nes "Strategie & Technik" and "Europäische Sicherheit" were combined under his lea- dership to form the current "Europäische Sicherheit & Technik". At the same time, Dr Bossdorf was appointed Managing Director of Mittler Report Verlag, where he also played a decisive role in the development of the English-language magazine "Europe- an Security & Defence" from a quarterly magazine to an internationally recognised specialist monthly journal.
