 First World War.com - Encyclopedia - Peaceful Penetration
Developed by Australian commander General John Monash and initially deployed by the Australian Imperial Force (AIF), so-called 'Peaceful Penetration' comprised a strategy of surprise concentrated aerial, artillery and infantry attacks in a limited area, secretly planned and generally spontaneous in nature.
Monash achieved success with the new strategy during the summer of 1918, using artillery, aircraft, tanks and machine guns to effectively devastate a target area for a relatively brief period prior to sending infantry into action.
This was in marked contrast to the tried, tested but invariably unsuccessful approach of extended preliminary bombardment, which usually served only to alert the enemy to impending infantry assault.
