INDOOR EXERCISE – JAPANESE IN BATTLE.

1. Object of Exercise. 

To study:-

• The characteristic and psychology of the JAPANESE soldier.

• JAPANESE tactical methods in certain ops of war.

• Conduct of Exercise.
• The exercise will take place on 16 Aug.  Index I is issued to you 2 Aug as there is much preliminary work to be done in your own time.

• This preliminary work consists of preparing yourself to write a short paper summarising the main pts of the characteristics and psychology of the JAPANESE soldier, and of JAPANESE tactical methods.  This entails the reading of manuals and pamphlets which have been issued to you, particularly “JAPANESE in Battle Part 1” and relevant paras of WIC’s, G series, and the studying of other documents on the Int room.

• A lecture on the JAPANESE Army on 11 Aug will give you some further ideas, and some of you are fortunate enough to be able to call on your own experience.

• The special Requirement (Index 2) will be issued to you on 16 Aug.  You will NOT be asked to consider JAPANESE methods in combined ops.

• There will be no conference on the exercise but DS will make notes on your work and a suggested solution will be issued to you.  In addition, the subject will, of course, be referred to continually throughout the course.
