| Summary | "Manual of Military Training" by Colonel James A. Moss is a comprehensive guide intended primarily for military cadets and company officers in training, written in the early 20th century. The book serves as a manual for various military drills, exercises, and principles necessary for efficient training and operation within military units, particularly company-level formations. With an emphasis on systematic training methods, it seeks to instill essential military skills and discipline needed for success in modern warfare. The opening of the manual sets the stage by outlining its purpose and structure. It emphasizes the importance of military training in achieving ultimate success on the battlefield. The author details the foundational concepts of military training, including the significance of physical fitness, teamwork, discipline, and the routine movements required of soldiers. Moss elaborates on the manual's organization, divided into different sections, from drills and company command to rifle training and health, which collectively aim to prepare officers and cadets for their critical roles in combat and leadership. The text stresses that thorough training is essential for both individual soldiers and cohesive unit functioning, ultimately leading to victory in battle.
