Title:: "In the shadow of Ivor Maxse" by Alistair Geddes
When:: Sat, 07 November 2009 02:30PM
Where:: Room 138, Holgate Block, York St John College - York
Category:: Yorkshire Branch

Description

Training in the BEF is a much neglected subject. What little is known is dominated by the figure of Sir Ivor Maxse. This talk examines the forgotten figure of Arthur Solly-Flood, the head of the Training Directorate in 1917, and assesses his contribution to the development of the BEF’s tactical doctrine and his role in improving its training system.
