Colonel John Musgrave

Colonel John Musgrave served for 35 years in the Royal Regiment of Artillery. He has led the development of the British Army’s joint fires capability, has run firepower in a NATO corps headquarters and commanded the Royal School of Artillery. His book Firepower: Making 21st Century Warfare Decisive reflects his experience in these roles, and his personal experience as a serving officer, of the West’s failure to achieve lasting peace in a series of post-Cold War conflicts. He is a regular speaker at international level on Artillery and Firepower theory and practice, and currently leads a major change programme within the British Army.
