ARTILLERY DOCTRINE

·         Guns should be pushed forward to inflict maximum casualties and achieve maximum ‘morale effect’ (the Boer War showed the problems with this doctrine. Colonel Long pushed his guns to within 700 yards of the Boer line, and watched his crews mowed down).

·         Bombardments should not be used if they will cause the enemy to withdraw, since the object is to defeat him rather than to drive him away.

·         If a bombardment is used, enemy guns should be silenced before firing on the section of line to be attacked. Guns were placed at intervals of 12-20 yards, usually in the open with teams and vehicles under cover in the rear.
