Description

Having carried out the exercise without troops, cadets of the Officer Cadet Training Unit in Memphis, Egypt, proceed to test their solutions to the tactical problems by carrying out the exercise themselves. They are organised as a fully equipped infantry company and the object of the exercise is to attack and capture Memphis. Here the company is proceeding at the double for cover. In the background, an instructor can be seen watching their movements.
