Synopsis

Excerpt from Recruit Manual

A squad of soldiers is a disputatious unit; physical training develops belligerent spirit which, during the period of training 'when' belligerency cannot be ex pended upon the enemy, must have a safety-valve; they argue fiercely about anything - and often about some technical point. The lieutenant smiles at such near disorder, and sends a drill book to the noisy squad room to decide the issue. The Manual, ever present, would be a constant irritant in exciting technical interest.
