Abstract
By late 1943, the British 8th Army had developed a strong learning and training culture, drawing from its battlefield experience. This essay will examine the evolution of this culture and its implementation across diverse units during its Italian campaign. The primary focus will be on the training and performance of the 8th Indian and 78th British divisions, focusing on the battles of October–December 1943. This analysis will consider the learning and training culture, along with the impact of ongoing reform initiatives within the British and Indian armies, and their relationship with strategic decisions made in London and New Delhi.
