  • Air University Review: March-April 1977, Volume XXVIII, No. 3
    The Professional Journal of the United States A ir Force the editors aerie Dr. Robert L. Pfaltzgraff, Jr., in our lead article, "Emerging Major Power Relationships," reflects on the shifting great power triangle of the United States, the Soviet Union, and the Peop!e's Republic of China. The cover, by Art Editor/lllustrator Bill DePaola, depicts an American eagle warily observing this triangle in a graphic elaboration of an abstract theme. For the first time in the experience of this editor, the Awards Committee members were unanimous in their first place votes for Major Don Alberts's "A Call from the Wilderness'' in the November-December 1976 issue. Aspiring authors who want to gain insight into subject matter that receives a very receptive reading by our editorial panei may want to re-examine that article. To the 50 percent of Air Force officers who necessarily receive an efficiency rating of three or below, it may be of more than passing interest to learn that the pseudonymous author of "I Am a Three" was recently promoted. You won't find Major Mark Wynn's name on the lieutenant colonel's promotion list, but we have it on good authority that the author who appeared under that nom de plume in the September-October 1976 issue is a living example that "threes" are promotable. Congratulations would seem to be appropriate, but how does one congratulate the anonymous? In this issue we find ourselves in the slightly embarrassed position of publishing an article by a member of the Air University Review Awards Committee.

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.

These types Tretain their characteristics to this day, perhaps, largely, because groups of relatives friends and neighbors settled in one section and gave a dominant tinge in creed, church and custom. The sons and daughters of these families married, and creed and custom grew stronger from year to year. Thus the Scotch-Irish, a people of Scotch origin, though living in Ireland for many years before the American emigration, settled in many parts of Virginia, North and South Carolina, and what is now East Tennessee, in great numbers and impressed their Presbyterian faith upon their posterity.
