Título: US Army Handbook 1939-1945 2e
Autor: George Forty
Sinopse: The transformation of the US Army during World War II from a small, outdated and ill-equipped force, into one of the mightiest armies in the world, was described by Sir Winston Churchill as being a prodigy of organization. Its value to the Allied cause was beyond measure, with a fighting record second to none in all theatres of operations worldwide. It was a marvelously well-equipped army, thanks to American inventiveness, know-how and technical prowess, and by 1945 it led the world in weaponry, strategic mobility and logistic capabilities. This text examines the organization, structure and equipment of the US Army - covering everything from weapons to tactics, vehicle markings to camouflage, rations to radio sets, and battle orders to logistics.
