Yorkshire Branch

Description

The performance of the Staff during the First World War has always invited controversial and, at times, apocryphal opinions. In this talk, Aimée challenges the myth that the Staff operated safely behind the lines. She will look at the roles, responsibilities and training of brigade staff officers. Aimée will then consider the operational performance and development of brigade staff officers between 1916-1918.

Battle studies (taken from the Somme, Cambrai and the final 100 days) will be used to illustrate her main theme.

Both members and non-members welcome.
