Download or read book History of the 91st Aero Squadron written by George C. Kenney and published by Loose Cannon. This book was released on 1919-03-01 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Formed in August 1917, The 91st Aero Squadron was a United States Army Air Service unit that fought on the Western Front during World War I. The 91st was one of the first five American flying squadrons to arrive in France, arriving at Chaumont Aerodrome on 15 November 1917. This is a well written unit history, by one or several of the members still serving in Germany after the cessation of hostilities in November 1918. It details the personnel of the unit and a near-daily account of operations/missions and major offensives in France, plus their operations after the war in occupied Germany. It has several photographs taken by the unit themselves (but are very low-resolution unfortunately). It also includes a summary of unit statistics and accomplishments, a personnel list with origin and disposition of Officers and Men of the unit. Students of WW One history and those interested in early flying combat will find this volume to be just as jaunty, interesting and engaging as any similar era unit history of a fighter/pursuit group. It truly gives one a feeling for the trials, tribulations, and tragedies felt by these young American airmen so far from home.

Download or read book World War I and the Foundations of American Intelligence written by Mark Stout and published by University Press of Kansas. This book was released on 2023-11-16 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ask an American intelligence officer to tell you when the country started doing modern intelligence and you will probably hear something about the Office of Strategic Services in World War II or the National Security Act of 1947 and the formation of the Central Intelligence Agency. What you almost certainly will not hear is anything about World War I. In World War I and the Foundations of American Intelligence, Mark Stout establishes that, in fact, World War I led to the realization that intelligence was indispensable in both wartime and peacetime. After a lengthy gestation that started in the late nineteenth century, modern American intelligence emerged during World War I, laying the foundations for the establishment of a self-conscious profession of intelligence. Virtually everything that followed was maturation, reorganization, reinvigoration, or reinvention. World War I ushered in a period of rapid changes. Never again would the War Department be without an intelligence component. Never again would a senior American commander lead a force to war without intelligence personnel on their staff. Never again would the United States government be without a signals intelligence agency or aerial reconnaissance capability. Stout examines the breadth of American intelligence in the war, not just in France, not just at home, but around the world and across the army, navy, and State Department, and demonstrates how these far-flung efforts endured after the Armistice in 1918. For the first time, there came to be a group of intelligence practitioners who viewed themselves as different from other soldiers, sailors, and diplomats. Upon entering World War II, the United States had a solid foundation from which to expand to meet the needs of another global hot war and the Cold War that followed.

Download or read book The United States in World War I written by James T. Controvich and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2023-05-08 with total page 657 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the centennial of the First World War rapidly approaching, historian and bibliographer James T. Controvich offers in The United States in World War I: A Bibliographic Guide the most comprehensive, up-to-date reference bibliography yet published. Organized by subject, this bibliography includes the full range of sources: vintage publications of the time, books, pamphlets, periodical titles, theses, dissertations, and archival sources held by federal and state organizations, as well as those in public and private hands, including historical societies and museums. As Controvich’s bibliographic accounting makes clear, there were many facets of World War I that remain virtually unknown to this day. Throughout, Controvich’s bibliography tracks the primary sources that tell each of these stories—and many others besides—during this tense period in American history. Each entry lists the author, title, place of publication, publisher, date of publication, and page count as well as descriptive information concerning illustrations, plates, ports, maps, diagrams, and plans. The armed forces section carries additional information on rosters, awards, citations, and killed and wounded in action lists. The United States in World War I: A Bibliographic Guide is an ideal research tool for students and scholars of World War I and American history.

Download or read book The German Armored Division written by U.S. War Department and published by Loose Cannon. This book was released on 2019-05-22 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the original German 1940 training documents To better prepare American officers to take on the German war machine, the U.S. War Dept. created this manual to instruct field officers about the structure, and organization of the German army Armored divisions. The idea was to give our forces an education on the makeup, composition, and general tactics of German units they were likely to encounter first in North Africa and later in Europe. Created from a captured Dec. 1940 German training manual, the book details the particular structure of Panzer groups, how they are outfitted, commanded and their specific tactics in both reconnaissance, attack and defense. It also details numerous 'best practices' for logistics, communications, and supply. Overall it gives a very complete overview of how such German units move, fight and react. A unique historical reference for those interested in World War 2 tank warfare and tactics. The book has also been enhanced by the addition of a photo reference appendix showing all the various tanks described by the document.
