The year was 1945 when this was written and not for the British but for the Canadian Army.
For us in India, most of it, especially the Officers’ Mess bit, is valid even today.
Makes interesting reading though Regimental life has undergone a major change in the Americas.
And while you are at it, please also have a look at this ‘Advice to the Officers of the British Army’ 1946 ed, first published in 1782, yes you read that right !
