Download or read book Military English Official Correspondence Orders Messages and Reports for Use in Courses Allied to Instruction in Military Science and Tactics 1918 Classic Reprint written by Percy Waldron Long and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Military English, Official Correspondence, Orders, Messages, and Reports for Use in Courses Allied to Instruction in Military Science and Tactics, 1918 In view of the fact that English Composition has been recognized as one of the courses of training essential to the soldiers and officers of the United States Military Forces, it becomes the duty of English teachers to modify their instruction so as to conform to the recommendation made by the War Department Committee on Education in the Special Descriptive Circular on English (C. b. 6-Sept. 24). The authors have sought to prepare a brief book to meet the second of the requirements named in the War Department circular - drill in correspondence and report writing and their adaptation to the needs of the military organization. The most direct purpose which the book will serve is to teach the soldier student, or prospective officer, how to write the correspondence, orders, messages, and reports which will be required of him, and which he will be called upon to understand even if he does not write them. The book gives instructions, models, and exercises which cover those parts of paperwork which require composition. Throughout the chapters emphasis is laid on the essential features of military language, on clearness, brevity, and precision. The last chapter contains many famous orders which illustrate those qualities of a leader's style which make for the upbuilding of morale. For many of the forms used to illustrate operation orders the authors express their cordial thanks to members of the French Military Mission, and particularly to Captain Andre Morize and Lieutenant R. Coube. Certain forms used in recent training were supplied by the courtesy of General M. B. Stewart and Colonel Edward Croft. The field messages, reports, and diary are censored documents from an American Machine Gun Company, written during the third German offensive this spring. For permission to use them, the authors are indebted to Major Herbert C. Earnshaw, now Commanding Officer of the Columbia Unit, S. A. T. C.

Download or read book Grunt The Curious Science of Humans at War written by Mary Roach and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2016-06-07 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times / National Bestseller "America's funniest science writer" (Washington Post) Mary Roach explores the science of keeping human beings intact, awake, sane, uninfected, and uninfested in the bizarre and extreme circumstances of war. Grunt tackles the science behind some of a soldier's most challenging adversaries—panic, exhaustion, heat, noise—and introduces us to the scientists who seek to conquer them. Mary Roach dodges hostile fire with the U.S. Marine Corps Paintball Team as part of a study on hearing loss and survivability in combat. She visits the fashion design studio of U.S. Army Natick Labs and learns why a zipper is a problem for a sniper. She visits a repurposed movie studio where amputee actors help prepare Marine Corps medics for the shock and gore of combat wounds. At Camp Lemmonier, Djibouti, in east Africa, we learn how diarrhea can be a threat to national security. Roach samples caffeinated meat, sniffs an archival sample of a World War II stink bomb, and stays up all night with the crew tending the missiles on the nuclear submarine USS Tennessee. She answers questions not found in any other book on the military: Why is DARPA interested in ducks? How is a wedding gown like a bomb suit? Why are shrimp more dangerous to sailors than sharks? Take a tour of duty with Roach, and you’ll never see our nation’s defenders in the same way again.
