(ii) For under war conditions targets beyond close rangeare usually invisible or indistinct, and frequently in motion ;distances are uncertain and difficult to judge ; firing takesplace under all conditions of light and atmosphere overevery variet^^ of ground, under the strain of excitementand fatigue in the face of artillery and rifle fire, with weaponswhich rapidly become imperfect owing to heavy , the theory of rifle fire is considered in thisbook in relation to practical service conditions. 3.
