Despite all the fuss about them, chemical weapons were hardly worth it during WWI. The amount of casualties caused by gas, compared to shelling, or even machingun fire, is negligible.
French and British tank crews had gas masks available, and that was deemed enough for their protection.

As for the first mecanized offensives, AFAIK, the French were much more effective than the Brits. Mostly because the later’ Mark tanks were slow and cumbersome, no matter how hard the British tried to improve them.

They should have send their tomatoes ahead in a lemming train supported by their unicoms in the second line.

lol 6-7 days. I would like to see the math on that. However he had a point, the current Soviet strategy was to attack everywhere at once and it was not working. Like millions dead not working.
