The traditional interpretation of army training during that conflict was lackluster as it produced combat units that lacked critical capabilities. The experience of learning how to train and how to write training doctrine produced positive results that have been largely overlooked by historians. This study examines the status of training in the pre-war army, to include both existing doctrine and institutional management organizations. It then chronicles the wartime experience and traces the evolution of training doctrine and practices during the war. It concludes by looking at the immediate post-war years to determine what lasting impacts the wartime experiences had on training doctrine and management. Overall, this study concludes that the training effort during World War I had significant long-term benefits for the army, producing the foundation of the army's training practices through World War II"--$cProvided by publisher. 517 $a"Army training, sir" 606 $aMilitary education$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aWorld War, 1914-1918$xInfluence 606 $aInfluence (Literary, artistic, etc.)$2fast 606 $aMilitary education$2fast 606 $aParliamentary practice$2fast 607 $aUnited States$2fast 608 $aHistory.$2fast 615 0$aMilitary education$xHistory 615 0$aWorld War, 1914-1918$xInfluence. 615 7$aInfluence (Literary, artistic, etc.) 615 7$aMilitary education. 615 7$aParliamentary practice. 676 $a355.50973 700 $aHope$b Gregory C.$01372149 712 02$aU.S. Army Command and General Staff College Press, 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 801 2$bOCLCO 801 2$bOCLCF 801 2$bGPO 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910715076503321 996 $a"Army training, sir"$93402171 997 $aUNINA
