    “Dig trenches, with our men being killed off like flies? There isn’t time to dig trenches. We’ll have to buy them ready made. Here, run out and get some trenches.” – Rufus T. Firefly, “Duck Soup”

    Night Gaunt: There are some similarities: speed is required to penetrate the flank and roll up the line on land. Naval flank speed was for the same purpose – separate the fire while concentrating it on the same target. The Battle of the Rio de la Plata is a good example, when Exeter took one side and the Ajax and Achilles, using greater (flank) speed, moved to the other against the Graf Spee. Two 6" and one 8" cruisers against a pocket battleship.
