Training
in the use of the bayonet is receiving much attention from all the combatant nations in Europe. The aim of the instruction is twofold:
1. To develop great alertness of mind, readiness of muscle, and habit of quick obedience to command.
2. To develop fighting spirit.
Physical drill and bayonet training go hand in hand and their drill periods follow each other. The physical drill consists of calisthenic exercises for fifteen or twenty minutes, followed by some game or exercise requiring great quickness of movement. To accomplish the aims of this training, especially the first named above, it is necessary to execute with snap the movements in the physical drill.
The following is from the latest British Training Manual (1916), which is based on their experience, and the forces are now being trained in accordance therewith.
BAYONET TRAINING.
CHAPTER I
Table of Contents
To
attack with the bayonet effectively requires good direction, strength and quickness during a state of wild excitement and probably physical exhaustion. The limit of the range of a bayonet is about five feet (measured from the opponent’s eyes), but more often the killing is at close quarters, at a range of two feet or less, when troops are struggling corps à corps in trenches or darkness.
The bayonet is essentially an offensive weapon—go straight at an opponent with the point threatening his throat and deliver a thrust wherever an opening presents itself. If no opening is obvious, then create one by beating off the opponent’s weapon or making a feint thrust
in order to make him uncover himself.
Hand-to-hand fighting with the bayonet is individual, which means that a man must think and act for himself and rely on his own resources and skill; but, as in games, he must play as one of a team and not for himself alone. In a bayonet assault all ranks go forward to kill or be killed, and only those who have developed skill and
