Maj Cameron Meikle has written a master's thesis that
details the development
of what became known as Medium Reconnaissance. He
found most of the innovation
and then application was within the XII MANITOBA DRAGOONS.
Getting CORPS HQ
to take notice was to do it as well as the flanking
task assigned.
The information provided to CORPS now allowed for
infantry
to advance 16kms (10mi) per day marching and taking
ground.
The thesis can be viewed at this site:
