Synopsis
A Treatise On The Loop Formation For Rifle Volunteers by Automatos. This work argues that national defense rests less on conventional drill and more on a simple, instinctive discipline that can be mobilized across a civilian population. It introduces the Loop formation, a self-organizing military figure formed not by rigid command but by the collective will of volunteers to kill with minimal personal risk. Drawing on ancient campaigns—Parthian tactics around Cannæ—the author asserts that a seemingly unstructured mass of volunteers can, under the right impulse, surround and harry an invading force by a continuous, circular action. The text outlines a practical implementation: England divided into districts of 105 volunteers, organized into fifty Centuries under elected Prefects; a system of four-tier leadership (Centuries, Captains, Centurions) with no centralized command, and annual secret-ballot elections to choose leaders. It also argues for rifle-ground infrastructure, meticulous planning of movements perpendicular to the enemy’s line, and the superiority of voluntary, self-directed discipline over regular army methods. The treatise ultimately contends that the Loop can provide a formidable defense while safeguarding individual courage and life.
