Join Simon and Tom as we discuss "The German Way of War" by Robert Citino, which is an overview of German military doctrine from Frederick William to the Battle of Moscow in 1941. In this book, Citino suggests that German military doctrine may be best typified by the continuity of thought relating to the importance of operational procedures rather than tactical, among other elements that have their roots in Prussian military culture. The book goes on to detail the success and failures such principles have over the course of history due to changing strategic conditions and technological advances.
