Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Merriam Press World War 2 History Series Also includes details of the effect of climate and terrain upon development trends (jungle, cave, desert, and arctic warfare). Written utilizing numerous source documents, listed in the footnotes. The material published in this Monograph is a complete reprint of the text of Chapter 1 ("Review of Ordnance Research and Development in World War II") of a manuscript in the National Archives (Records Group Number 156, Box A746). The author was not identified on the copy we worked from, although it seems likely this manuscript was written by an officer (or historian) of the U.S. Army's Ordnance Department, since the author obviously had access to most, if not all, Ordnance Department records. While no date is given as to when the manuscript was originally prepared, it would seem likely that it was written not long after World War II. It was not declassified until 27 September 1958. Although much more could obviously be written about the Ordnance Department's research and development role in World War II, this work is certainly of immense value because of its almost exclusive use of original source documents, as well as having been written shortly after the events occurred.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. Army fought World War II with materiel much of which was developed in the decade prior to our entry, particularly in the period following the German blitz in Poland. Our efforts to develop munitions to the point where our armies could cope on equal terms with those of potential enemies are covered here in this, the first of three projected volumes on the history of the Ordnance Department in World War II. How well the Ordnance Department succeeded in matching the Germans in quality continues to be a matter of debate both within the Ordnance Department itself, and between the using arms and the Department. That the battle of quantity was won-with the help of a superb industrial machine-can hardly be denied. This volume, the result of diligent research by Dr. Constance McL. Green and her associates, should interest not only military men but also scientists, industrialists, and laymen in general. Among other things, it shows the urgent necessity of a directed, continuous, and intensive research program and the danger in failing to recognize and profit by developments abroad. Also shown is the inherent time interval between the drawing board and the production of the end item in quantity."
