| Summary | "Bombers' Training, and Application of Same in Trench Warfare" by Ferris is a practical military guide written during the early 20th century, particularly in the context of World War I trench warfare. This instructional publication targets officers and non-commissioned officers (N.C.O.s) engaged in the training of soldiers in the use of bombs and grenades, a vital skill during a time when trench combat had necessitated new methods of warfare. The book offers a comprehensive overview of the training techniques required for effective bomb handling and throwing in the trenches, presenting a detailed syllabus, lectures on explosives, and descriptions of various types of grenades. It emphasizes discipline, organization, and safety in handling explosives, along with practical exercises reminiscent of war scenarios. With various diagrams and descriptions, readers gain insights into the physical and tactical implications of bomb warfare, including defensive and offensive uses, as well as methods of construction and teamwork necessary for successful bomb throwing. The text serves as an essential manual for improving efficiency and resourcefulness in the harsh realities of trench warfare. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
