~ First edition. Jhr. Carel Adriaan Jan Meijer, (18641927) began his military career as a corporal and became Major in 1916. He was active as military dog trainer and in 1909 established the Dutch Association for Red Cross Dogs (dissolved in 1967). In the First World War he led Red Cross rescue dogs in the battlefield of Argonne. For his life time service he received several awards, including the Insigne de Mérite de la Croix Rouge de Belgique. The book is in practice a blueprint for the establishment of the Dutch Association. Meijer brings firsthand testimonies from other European associations with whom he has been in contact for the preparation of his plan. He talks about history of the war dog, experience in the German, Italian, and Russian armies, etc. He discusses principles of dog education, training, and exercise; the well-being of the dog, accommodation, equipment, etc. He also includes the annual report for 1903 of the Deutscher Verein für Sanituatshunde, and finally brings in detail the Breed Standard of the Nederlandsche Herdershonden. The book ends with a double-page list of the dead, wounded or missed in action dogs in the main battlefields of the 19th Century. Extremely rare landmark in the history of European Red Cross rescue and war dog.

Divided into two main parts, the book is a guide to the principles of the making and the use of cinematography for military education, and a catalogue of all such available films used by the Wehrmacht at the 28

time of publication. The greatest part of the book, some 200 pages, comprises of a very detailed catalogue of all Wehrmacht educational films, divided into several subject- and search groups. It lists in considerable detail hundreds of films and image series by title, subject, category, date, duration, etc. with a brief but comprehensive description of the contents. Length of films in meter and minutes is given, as well as variations of small- and large formats. Extensive categorizing system is applied with cross references. There are chapters dedicated to all films for the use of individual Military Branches: infantry, artillery, pioneers and field engineers, armour, signal corps, supply and logistics, smoke and gas defense, railway pioneers, sanitary, technical troops, etc. Films for special circumstances such as mountain war, winter war, desert and steppe war, etc. General military education films such as military history, espionage, antiaircraft defense. And miscellaneous films such as politics, current international affairs, foreign armies, science, etc. The material is listed by title and subject as well as by item number. The first part of the book is an introduction of the principles, terms, technique, and implementation of image and film in military education. It is clearly intended for the use of rank officers who might commission or use such a film. This part explains the essence of combining words and images, story board, wall- and table displays, photography, principles of projection of transparencies, working on light table, editing and montage, the various film sizes i.e. 16mm, 35mm, and medium- and large formats, motion picture, sound, etc. It later discusses the implementation of the film in education, the projection room, design and production of films and slideshows, managing an archive, etc. etc. Issued for the use of the higher echelon at the regimental level, this guide has been published in a limited number of copies. Hardly any survived. OCLC locates a single holding in Germany, that in Universität der Bundeswehr Mßnchen. ! 1170
