Can the 2nd beta patch be installed without installing the 1st beta patch?

Correct, you can install beta 2 without installing beta 1.

I see no mention of the fix for the bug (which we discussed earlier )which caused a superior officer in Sandbox to ride straight into the enemy lines ahead of the attacking units.
Apologies if I have missed the reference.

This fix should be part of: "*Replacement leaders spawned when the original leader is killed on a road march no longer continue the road march."

A Dukes--thanks for your comment---But does this then mean that the original superior officer himself will still ride into the enemy lines and usually get killed?
If so this is really only a partial fix--it is the original leader himself riding blindly into the enemy lines ahead of the attacking units and getting himself killed which is unrealistic and bizarre behaviour.This also needs changing--not just the behaviour of the spawned replacements.

No he won't. The original superior officer who rode into the enemy lines was on a road path and couldn't abandon the path. Now he will, so he won't ride into the enemy.

If that is the case- fine.But the bug-fix summary sounded as though it was only addressing the spawned leaders' behaviour after the death of the initial officer.
I'll check this out when i can and thanks for your insights.
