Shire straightened his military cap, it was as hard as stale bread, wearing it in battle would surely be uncomfortable and besides that, it offered no protection at all.
But for Shire, this was a good thing, he immediately thought they should provide a helmet for the French Army.
Though helmets are small, during the Great War about 8.5 million men from France were conscripted. If everyone needed one, the money earned could probably be no less than that from motorcycles...
Shire's daydream was interrupted by Gallieni, "Are you thinking or are you daydreaming, Lieutenant?"
Shire gave an "uh" and refocused his attention back on the map:
"First, there's the issue of the 5th Army's safety."
He pointed at the map and said:
"The flanking 3rd Army and 8th Army are advancing steadily, and there are no major issues with the logistics of these armies, recruitment is relatively stable, so there's no need to overly worry about being encircled by the Germans!"
