March, 2023: Outstanding illumination of this terrifying flavour of warfare. Thank you. Although not a feature of the Great War, this discussion reminded me of the possibly fatuous and expensive distribution of civilian gas masks in 1938+ urban centres in the UK. I had always viewed this maneuvre largely one of attempted civilian mobilisation, similar perhaps to our recent government efforts.
I have a replica box respirator, I would hate to have to wear that thing for more than ten minutes while sat down comfortably. Wearing it for hours in a combat environment would be distinctly uncomfortable!
The issues with CW or BW is you need too many right conditions with the weather. You drop Sarin off in a room with some people great but trying to blast an entire division unless they're enclosed in some building it won't really work unless it's a perfectly calm day without too much windy, rain, etc
It is obvious that Professor Gary Sheffield has never experienced the effects of unprotected exposure to gas. Being able to breath is a fairly basic requirement to life; being deprived of that ability is a rather sharp shock. Being deprived of the ability to see whilst in a battlefield is also a fairly debilitating experience. The fact that the German troops did not wish to endanger themselves by deliberately putting themselves into such an obviously life depriving environment should be hardly surprising.

This is honestly of higher quality and more articulate than many of the online lectures i have been through this year which were paid for....
Sooo happy these are still going up, really helping me get through lockdown

Excellent talk. Could have used some visual aids. But being online, I was able to look everything up, so I guess the point is moot.

Thanks for Uploading.

“They said they mechanized the war…so what the hell are we marching for?!”
So a flamethrower attack is not a gas attack .... thank you for that wise observation.
Quiet, I have everything at 100%.
Had to resort to earphones.
Thankfully Germany didn't use chemical weapons during WW2.
Well Not for Militaricly reasons.
