To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Another important innovation at this time was the introduction of theLewis light machine gun. The Maxim, and even the Vickers machine gun hadbeen found for many reasons unsuitable for infantry work, being tooheavy and cumbersome for rapid movement, too conspicuous for easyconcealment. It was therefore decided to form Brigade Machine GunCompanies, who would be armed with Vickers guns, while Battalions wouldhave Lewis guns only, on a scale of two per Company, for they were to beconsidered a compa...ny rather than a Battalion weapon. This light gun hadno tripod, was air-cooled, and fired a pan instead of a belt ofammunition. It was as easy to carry as to conceal, and was in every wayan enormous improvement on the "Vickers" from the infantry point ofview. Training in the new weapon started at once, and as 2nd Lieut. Saunders and Serjt. Jacques were required for the Brigade Machine GunCompany, 2nd Lieut. Shipston was made Lewis Gun Officer, with CorporalSwift to help him, and these two trained as many men as possible withthe two guns issued to us, so that when more arrived the teams would beready for them.
