Book excerpt: This publication is described as a tactical study based on the Action of 2nd Brigade, R.F.A (6th Division) during the German Offensive, 1918; the 100 Days Battle; and the Battle of Cambrai, 1917. It contains three Articles published in the Royal Artillery Journal between 1919 and 1923, which had as one object to place on record a set of actual experiences which could provide a framework on which to consider the practical effect of the aeroplane, the tank and chemical warfare on field artillery in battle and to see what lessons might be learned. A second object was to provide a souvenir of great days of the past for the officers and men who participated in the events described. The three Articles were entitled : A Field Artillery Group in Retreat (March/April 1918); A Field Artillery Group in the General Advance (September/October 1918), and A Field Artillery Group in the Surprise (Cambrai November 1917).

Book excerpt: In King of Battle: Artillery in World War I, a distinguished array of authors examines the centrepiece of battle in the Great War: artillery. Going beyond the usual tables of calibres and ranges, the contributors consider the organization and technology of artillery, as well as present aspects of training, doctrine, and other national idiosyncrasies. Artillery dominated the battlefields of World War I, and forever changed the military doctrine of war. No nation that had participated in significant ground combat would blithely assume that morale could ever replace firepower. The essays included in this volume explain how twelve countries, including all the major combatants, handled artillery and how it affected the Great War. Contributors include Filippo Cappellano, Boyd Dastrup, Edward J. Erickson, Bruce Gudmundsson, James Lyon, Sanders Marble, Janice E. McKenney, Dmitre Minchev, Andrey Pavlov, Kaushik Roy, Cornel and Ioan Scafes, John Schindler, and David Zabecki.

Book excerpt: America's semi-centennial look at the liberation of Fortress Europe. Artillery troops, constituting fewer than 10% of U.S. forces, inflicted most German casualties in their sector. The European Theatre of Operations is viewed by the artillery battalion which was attached to eight divisions & whose terrain varied from the left flank to the right flank of U.S. forces. In this wartime experiment, the men were sent directly to their wartime assignments from the reception center. The combat performance of this battalion became a testing ground for the necessity of a "boot camp." Liberating enslaved people for 268 continuous days had a remarkable effect on the soldiers. One anecdote is from an artillery observer who was with the troops that liberated Dachau. The Millen Castle Affair on the Dutch-German border terminated the careers of 35 senior German officers. The close-range direct-fire artillery duel at Nuremberg evidenced U.S. military excellence. Numerous first-person anecdotes & input from more than 100 veterans are included. U.S. & European homefront reactions to developments are cited. To order: Bull Run of Vermont, 7 Deborah, South Burlington, VT 05403-7816. $21 plus $3 P&H.

This book was released on 2015-04-05 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Merriam Press Military Reprint MR28 (First Reprint Edition, 2015). The 697th Field Artillery Battalion not only has a history stemming from the oldest battery in the U.S. Army, but it also has the distinction of being the first 240mm howitzer battalion formed for World War II. To carry on this proud history the 697th Field Artillery was the first 240mm howitzer outfit to enter combat in World War II, when it was committed under the aegis of the Fifth Army at Cassino, Italy, on 30 January 1944. From that time until 8 May 1945 when "Peace through Victory" was secured, the battalion remained in combat to become the last 240mm howitzer battalion to continue actively in battle in the European Theater. Contents: Historical Background; Italy; France and Germany; Peace; Appendices: Campaigns, Battalion Soft Ball Team, List of Awards, Commendations, Roster of Officers, Headquarters Battery, Medical Detachment, A Battery, B Battery, C Battery, Service Battery. 34 photos and illustrations, 2 maps.

Download or read book Million Dollar Barrage written by Justin G. Prince and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2021-01-14 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the beginning of the twentieth century, field artillery was a small, separate, unsupported branch of the U.S. Army. By the end of World War I, it had become the “King of Battle,” a critical component of American military might. Million-Dollar Barrage tracks this transformation. Offering a detailed account of how American artillery crews trained, changed, adapted, and fought between 1907 and 1923, Justin G. Prince tells the story of the development of modern American field artillery—a tale stretching from the period when field artillery became an independent organization to when it became an equal branch of the U.S. Army. The field artillery entered the Great War as a relatively new branch. It separated from the Coast Artillery in 1907 and established a dedicated training school, the School of Fire at Fort Sill, in 1911. Prince describes the challenges this presented as issues of doctrine, technology, weapons development, and combat training intersected with the problems of a peacetime army with no good industrial base. His account, which draws on a wealth of sources, ranges from debates about U.S. artillery practices relative to those of Europe, to discussions of the training, equipping, and performance of the field artillery branch during the war. Prince follows the field artillery from its plunge into combat in April 1917 as an unprepared organization to its emergence that November as an effective fighting force, with the Meuse-Argonne Offensive proving the pivotal point in the branch’s fortunes. Million-Dollar Barrage provides an unprecedented analysis of the ascendance of field artillery as a key factor in the nation’s military dominance.
