Welcome to the 150th edition ofThe Bugle, and the ninth for 2018!
To mark the 150th edition of this newsletter, we'veinterviewed three former editors ofThe Bugle. We'd also really really appreciate your reflections on this milestone, and suggestions for howThe Bugle could be further developed.
TomStar81 brings us two articles this month: anop-ed covering the downfall of European monarchies at the end of World War I, and what must be one of the final instalments of his vasttimeline of the war.
Turning to our regular features, thearticle news section covers four FAs and seven A-class articles promoted in September. Thebook reviews section includes an assessment of a book on how militaries have used "substandard" manpower, as well as some recent reviews of military history books published elsewhere.
In other news, the MilHist FA, A-class, GA and peer reviews for July–September have been tallied.Peacemaker67,Nikkimaria andGog the Mild headed the list with 50, 38 and 24 reviews respectively. Five other editors reviewed 15 or more articles. You can find the names of everyone who contributedhere. Thanks to everyone who pitched in to keep our assessment processes moving, and to all who helped tally the reviews.
Elections for theXVIII Coordinator Tranche concluded on 29 September. Peacemaker67 was elected as Lead Coordinator, his first time at the helm after serving four terms as a Coordinator. Nine other Coordinators were also elected, including two editors new to the job:Arius1998 andKges1901. Congratulations to all the new tranche, and thank you to everyone who voted!
TomStar81 was unanimously appointed as our third Coordinator Emeritus as part of the Coordinator election. He joinsKirill Lokshin andRoger Davies, who were appointed in 2008 and 2009 respectively.
