Description
Sir Henry Horne (Commander of First Army 1916-18) is one of the least known of British Generals, but he typifies the quiet professionalism of the British Army and the ‘learning curve’ which is now recognised as one of the main features of the British military experience in the Great War. An artilleryman, he was identified with technical developments such as the ‘creeping barrage’.
Both as a man and a soldier, innate integrity was one of his most prominent attributes.
Both members and non-members welcome.
