The Modern British Army: The Path to Future Soldier, 2010s and Beyond outlines the Army’s initiatives to align its decreasing personnel numbers with the necessary organization and equipment to address the nation’s contemporary defence challenges.
The focus is primarily on the timeframe from 2010 onwards, encompassing the transition from ‘Army 2020’ to ‘Future Soldier.’ Utilizing a diverse array of official and contemporary sources, this work analyzes the policy decisions that have influenced these transformations while offering comprehensive information on command structure, organization, units, basing, and equipment.
This enables readers to trace the evolution of the Army as it responded to frequently revised or modified policies. Additionally, the Royal Marine commando force and the RAF’s ground protection units are also discussed alongside the Army.
The Modern British Army: The Path to Future Soldier, 2010s and Beyond is richly illustrated with colour photographs and features a selection of specially commissioned colour artworks.
