USE OF PACK TRANSPORT.
Pack transport for both cavalry and infantry has been found to be more mobile and less conspicuous than limbered wagons. A combination of both is probably best. In many cases, before the war, pack transport was never used; thus when issued it was little understood. Sufficient attention is not paid to the selection of horses for pack work. If the horses with easy action are selected the bad effects of undue jolting can be minimized. Putting on pack and getting in and out of action with it is too little practised.
