Location's Influence on Doctrine

I've just ordered Stephen Bungay's book on the Battle of Britain. Although I mentioned it earlier, here's another excerpt from his book, Alamein:

The British Army was used to fighting small colonial wars in big countries with primitive infrastructures. As a result, its doctrine emphasized logistics. The German Army expected to fight wars in Europe, where roads and railways would take care of all the problems, and its doctrine therefore emphasized operations. The skills of the two armies developed accordingly.
