520 _a"Technique of modern tactics" by P. S. Bond and Michael Joseph McDonough is a military training manual on tactics and troop leading written in the early 20th century. It presents a compact, practice-oriented guide for officers, emphasizing problem-solving, field leadership, and coordination of all arms from small detachments to divisions, including newer capabilities like aircraft and motor transport. The opening of the manual frames an urgent case for national preparedness, arguing that modern war demands universal, systematic training and professional expertise, and that American officers must develop younger leaders through disciplined study and applicatory exercises. It outlines the book’s purpose as a concise, authoritative aid for instructors and self-study—complementing, not replacing, official regulations—focused primarily on open-field operations rather than prolonged trench warfare. It then provides an extensive table of contents and begins with a clear, data-rich overview of U.S. Army organization under contemporary regulations, detailing typical compositions and staffs from corps to regiment, the structure of infantry, cavalry, artillery, engineers, and signal units, transportation elements, and practical figures on war strength, road space, and camp areas.
