Re: Combat Fatigue
Adriano:
It has been several years since I read Charles Whiting's Poor Bloody Infantry but I am certain this is where I picked up the information regarding the length of time in combat for the British infantryman. It must be remembered that most days on the front line don't involve intense combat but those days I am sure are counted within that time period. Who was it who stated that war involves long periods of boredom with short periods of intense fighting? Another excellent work is John Ellis' The Sharp End but again this involves the man with the bayonet.
