How did the British Army go from the muddle of the Boer War to the professionalism of 1918? In this episode, historian David Keable-Elliot talks to the show about The Doctrine of the British Army — the forgotten Field Service Regulations that shaped everything from tactics to training. It’s the story of how a rulebook turned chaos into coherence, and helped Britain win the First World War.
