NATO Debate Urges Combined Military Setup In UK NATO Policy
CAPTAIN B H Liddell Hart argues for a NATO British force model mixing infantry brigades with armored units to match Allied plans. He warns current six brigade groups under the War Office hinder coordination, increases risk from atomic weapons, and suggests three or four model divisions or two armored plus two light infantry divisions as better options. He advocates a non nuclear fire guard to reinforce deterrence and a mobile militia regular force mix.
