Excerpt from Tactical Organization and Uses of Machine Guns in the Field
There have not been lacking students of the subject among the most distinguished exponents of the military art. These have advanced various views, more or less in the realm of pure conject ure, as to the future developments of the arm, and some of these will bear quotation to show the trend of thought among the best thinkers on this subject.
Lord W'olseley said in 1886 If made use of intelligently upon active service, the machine gun of infantry rifle caliber that will fire with smoke less powder and be sighted up to 3000 yards will mark a new era as pronounced as that when rifle or when breech-loading small arms were first adopted.

Excerpt from Tactical Organization and Uses of Machine Guns in the Field
The machine gun has become a permanent factor in the military tactics of the future. The place it is to occupy in the military world is still to be determined, except that it is acknowledged that the machine gun will constitute a powerful addition to the armament of nations. It is the most recent development of inventive genius as applied to the military art, and has until recently been considered as an undemonstrated thing in warfare. It has at last taken the position of a well demonstrated weapon whose capabilities and powers are as well defined and as thoroughly understood as those of the field-piece or the infantry rifle. The next problem is to determine its tactical place, organization, and uses. Then, in this country, remains the problem of forcing recognition of the merits of the new weapon, and necessity for its proper status, upon a reluctant Congress and public.
