David Stone (British military historian and author) : ウィキペディア英語版 | David Stone (military historian)
David John Anthony Stone (born 1947) is an established military author and historian and a former British army officer. Most of his books on various aspects of military conflict have been written and published since he retired from active military duty in 2002, including several studies on the Prussian and German armies throughout the course of history: an area in which his particular expertise is today acknowledged both in the UK and abroad. He is a Member of the Society of Authors and of several other professional, literary and historical or heritage-related groups and organisations. He has maintained a close connection with the heritage and historical perspectives of his former regiment, serving from 2002 to 2015 as a senior trustee of what is today The Rifles (Berkshire and Wiltshire) Museum at Salisbury. He was elected a Fellow of the Chartered Management Institute in 1994 and a Member of the Institute of Directors in 2000. He is married and lives in Devon, England. == Military career ==
David Stone was educated in Devon and Cheshire before beginning his military career at the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst (RMAS) in 1965. On graduating from the RMAS at the end of the two-year regular officers commissioning course, he was commissioned into The Duke of Edinburgh's Royal Regiment (Berkshire and Wiltshire) in July 1967. Subsequently, his time as a British army infantry officer spanned 35 years to 2002, involving him in service across much of the globe. His principal duty stations included West Germany, West Berlin, the reunified Germany post-1991, Belgium, Hong Kong, the Former Republic of Yugoslavia (Croatia and Bosnia) and the United Kingdom, including Northern Ireland. He also served various tours of duty and assignments in the USA, Canada, Cyprus, France, Scandinavia, Malaysia, Nepal, and Brunei. As a lieutenant colonel, he commanded the 1st Battalion, The Duke of Edinburgh's Royal Regiment (Berkshire and Wiltshire) (1 DERR), prior to and after which he carried out a diverse range of command, staff, training and other assignments in the UK and elsewhere. His operational experience included command at platoon, company and battalion level with 1 DERR as well as in other regimental and non-regimental staff and other appointments. He was Mentioned in Despatches in 1984.〔''London Gazette'' 170484 (April 1984)〕 He is a graduate of the Army Staff College Camberley and the US Army John F. Kennedy Special Warfare Centre, in addition to various other UK and NATO training centres, including the NATO School (SHAPE) at Oberammergau, Germany. During his service, he spent a total of 14 years in Germany and, as his publisher notes, 'Many of these assignments afford() him a unique opportunity to research and write on the German experience of war.'〔Conway Publishing, http://www.conwaypublishing.com/author/david-stone〕 Frequently serving alongside or with German troops in NATO appointments, he was awarded the Bundeswehr Abzeichen für Leistungen im Truppendienst in Gold in 1987.〔V/TrUbPlKdo Sennelager (23 April 1987)〕
