From the editors

 

Welcome to the fifth Bugle for 2024!

The regular article news section includes one new featured article, five featured pictures and two new A-class articles. The featured pictures are all impressive, and cover a diverse set of topics.

Following on from the bumper edition last month, this month's book review section includes reviews of four works by Hawkeye7 and Nick-D. These are a diverse range of books, including a techno-thriller, the "shortest history of war", a book about the nature of war and a discussion of issues around declassifying government documents.

Hawkeye also contributes this month's op-ed, discussing the concept (or non-concept) of center of gravity.

Your editors, Ian Rose (talk) and Nick-D (talk)
