Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Notes on the Solution of Tactical Problems: Departments of Military Art the Army Service Schools No amount of study of the theory alone of the art will, by itself, fit one to meet the emergencies of war with skill and certainty. To acquire such, not only must its principles be learned, but the habit, as well, of their application to concrete cases must be established. A man might read volumes on how to lay brick, but he could hardly attain skill thereat until he has long experience in the actual handling of his trowel. The military mind, like the mason's hand, requires practice in the use of its tactical tools to acquire dexterity. We do not have to wait for war to present its vital problems in order to begin the training of our officers in applied tactics. But the teaching of tac tics in time of peace by application to concrete situa tions requires no defense. To confound the critics of that system, one need but to point to the German Army, and to the map of Europe today.
