Special service squadron of the Royal Marines: the Royal Navy and organic amphibious warfare capability before 1914 / Seligmann, Matthew S

Seligmann, Matthew S	Journal Article
	0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)

Summary/Abstract

It is usually maintained that before 1914 the Royal Navy had abandoned interest in amphibious warfare. This article argues otherwise. It shows that prior to 1914 the Admiralty sought to reconfigure the Royal Marines as an organic maritime strike force. The idea was advanced by junior officers and taken up by the naval leadership, who appointed a high-level committee to elaborate the details. Significant steps had been taken before war broke out, thereby showing that modern British amphibious warfare doctrine pre-dates the ill-fated Gallipoli operation and needs to be understood in a broader context than is currently the case.
