The contents actually show this second part as including field notes on the French and German Armies, but only the Belgian Army is featured. All the relevant information is provided on the 1906 Army, conditions of service, infantry, cavalry, artillery etc with unit locations, uniforms, badges of rank, arms, equipment and supply. There is also a chapter on the Gendarmerie and Civic Guard. The Belgian Army was made up of two forces: the Field Army and Fortress Troops. In 1914 the Field Army consisted, like the BEF, of six infantry and one cavalry division and its strength, too, was similar at 150,000. Fortress Troops numbered 130,000\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e War Office The (British) General Staff\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1783310944\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781783310944\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Naval \u0026amp; Military Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/12\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 166\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.48lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.38d","brand":"War Office The (British) General Staff","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44129621344511,"sku":"9781783310944","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9bc85f1b-2767-48b6-95b4-7d29a2587719.jpg?v=1687464899","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/handbook-of-the-belgian-army-war-office-the-british-general-staff-9781783310944","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
