"Lauer's mastery of his subject is unrivaled. His book
should be required reading for anyone with an interest in the
training and development of infantry soldiers.” ―David J.
Furness, US Marine Corps Lieutenant General
"A landmark study.... Drawing on newly available
sources, Stephen Lauer unpacks the factors that influenced
the creation of World War II infantries and sustained them in
the crucible of close combat."―Chris Marsh, Joint Special
Operations University
It has long been accepted wisdom that Germany's
infantrymen possessed superior tactical ability relative to
their Anglo-American adversaries in World War II. Now,
drawing on newly available information, Stephen Lauer unpacks
that assumption, exploring the conscription, classification,
and training methods of the US, British, and German
infantries from 1919 through 1945.
How did conscripted citizens become foot soldiers
willing to fight, and even die, for each other in the face of
brutal physical and mental demands? How was it decided which
men to assign to combat units? How did each nation engender
the social bonds that were essential if soldiers were to
succeed―and survive―in their small unit milieus? Addressing
these questions of manpower quality, Forging the Anvil
is a landmark study of the key factors that influenced the
creation of World War II infantries and sustained them in the
crucible of close combat.
