Welcome to the eleventh Bugle for 2024!

Our regular article news section offers rich pickings in the form of six new featured articles, four new featured pictures, and three new A-class articles.

The book review section includes an entry by Hawkeye7 on the battles of Operation Veritable, the Anglo-Canadian advance through the Reichswald in February 1945.

A reminder that nominations for the Military historian of the year and Military history newcomer of the year close at 23:59 (GMT) on 30 November, so consider your choices of the outstanding Milhist members now! Voting for the nominations will begin at 00:01 on 1 December and continue until 23:59 on 30 December.

Lastly, a general reminder that featured articles promoted before 2016 are in need of review, so if you had an article promoted to featured status on or before 2016 please check and update your article before it's listed at FAR/C.

Your editors, Ian Rose (talk) and Nick-D (talk)
