I've read all the same sources as he would use and more - and now I want to hear from someone with actual experience - because that will help me decide which sources are most credible.

Depth for instance. Depth of a line would be explained in military history by tradition, fighting strength, fighting tactics, adversaries, terrain, type of engagement (such as a pitched battle against infantry vs. a holding action against missile bearing cavalry and skirmishers). Modern riots dont come close to the same conditions, they were just different beasts that are only alike in the very vaguest of ways.

Bryan, thanks for your views, but they are not helping me.
I just want to hear from those who have actual experience in police riots - because that will help me understand the issues involved.

I appreciate you'd rather close down the discussion, but it is an open forum and I'm allowed to ask for help from people other than yourself.
Oh the grand oh Duke Suetonius, he had a Roman legion, he galloped rushed down to (a minor settlement called) Londinium then he galloped rushed back again. Londinium Bridge is falling down, falling down ... HOLD IT ... change of plans, we're leaving the bridge for Boudica and galloping rushing north.
