Evolution of Division Level Non-Nuclear Fire Support Coordination of Organic, Attached, and Supporting Ground Weapons an, (Paperback)

The purpose of the thesis is to trace the evolution of fire support coordination and control at the United States infantry division level through World War II (1942 to 1945). The coverage is restricted to the coordination and control of organic, attached, and supporting ground weapons and supporting aircraft. Troop safety measures are examined briefly in their relationship to fire support control and coordination. The study is based primarily upon United States infantry division after-action reports and observer reports during periods of active combat from 1942 to 1945.
