Vers l'armée de métier
Book • 1940
In 'Vers l'Armée de Métier', Charles de Gaulle proposed the creation of a highly mobile and professional army, emphasizing mechanized warfare and elite armored units.
This vision was contrary to the prevailing French military doctrine of the time, which favored a conscript-based 'nation in arms' approach.
De Gaulle's ideas were influential but initially met with resistance within French military circles.
