War Information

It is of vital importance for a general to have the fullest possible information about the enemy before
committing his troops to battle. Many military disasters have been due to ignorance either of the
enemys force and disposition or of the detail of the battleground. When the Battle of Gettysburg
opened, Lees scouts were away on a foraging expedition. The Union army was therefore able to
reconnoiter and seize the most strategic points on the field and fight the action from chosen positions.
Lees army was terribly defeated.
Today every resource is used to discover vital war information. Hitlers invasion of Poland was backed
by scientific study of every pertinent detail. Even the weather conditions had been calculated. During
the years preceding the invasion of Europe in World War II, Allied experts studies the minutest detail of
the invasion coast of Fortress Europe. Planes, spies, maps, scientists, travelers, refugeesall were
used to place before the general staff the fullest possible information.
Military experts have always recognized the importance of such information. Caesar, too, though he
lacked maps of modern technical excellence, as well as planes and swift-moving scouting cars, made
extensive inquiries before launching a campaign. There were Roman spies, Gallic refugees,
merchantsall of whom he consulted. The Roman army sent out cavalry and special scouts
(exploratores) to study the terrain (natura loci) and the disposition of the opposing forces.
What then would a general wish to know?

Ante1 proelium imperator legatos et tribunos militum in concilium vocat. In concilio

quaerit quantum numerum et equitum et militum hostes habeant, ubi castra hostium sint,
quantas paraverint munitiones; num copiam aquae et frumenti habeant; quantam armorum
copiam habeant. quaerit etiam quae sint portus et flumina et montes in hostium finibus; quae
genera hominum eas partes incolant; num omnia quae ad bellum pertinent paraverint; num
fortes sint et cupidi belli gloriae; num acriter pugnent; quos duces habeant, num boni sint.
Ante1 proelia imperator equites mittit qui naturam loci explorent et cognoscant ubi hostes
constiterint. Cognoscit num aciem instruxerint; num ad proelium sint parati.
Ita Caesar et omnes magni duces saepe hostes superaverunt quod omnia quae ad
proelium pertinent cognoverant.
