Landmine Warfare

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the strategic use of mines in warfare, this manual explores their role as active obstacles that delay and disrupt enemy movements while instilling fear. Unlike passive barriers, mines require significant resources for deployment but can effectively control battlefield dynamics when used in concentrated areas, such as fords or bridge approaches. The text emphasizes the tactical advantages of using mines to create large-scale obstacles rather than solely as tools for inflicting casualties, highlighting their impact on enemy morale and operational effectiveness.
