Russian command quality before Tsushima

The comparison separates the strengths and weaknesses of Russia's two services before the Russo-Japanese War. The navy had highly capable admirals but gave them a difficult mixture of ships to organize and employ. The army had good troops serving with an equally uneven collection of equipment, while its generals are judged less capable than the admirals. That imbalance helps frame the later campaign and the approach to Tsushima without treating the army and navy as if they shared the same institutional problem.
