Terence Holmes, by far my most competent opponent in the ‘Schlieffen plan’ debate, now agrees with me that the Schlieffen plan was not the German war plan, either in 1906/07 (when the plan was supposedly first implemented) or in 1914, because new documentation conclusively proves that the German army never had the number of divisions that the plan required. However, Holmes still insists that, given the chance, Schlieffen could have raised the necessary number of divisions in 1906. I show that this was most unlikely.
