Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Operation Orders: Field Artillery; A Study in the Technique of Battle Orders This work was suggested by the publication, "Battle Orders," by Captain von Kiesling of the German Army, a book which has been used with great success at the Army Service Schools. Von Kiesling´s work, however, deals with German units on a difficult foreign map and relates almost wholly to infantry. The situations herein presented have been worked out repeatedly by officers of all grades during the past two years at Fort Sill in postgraduate school work, target practice, actual maneuvers with troops and in examinations for promotion. They therefore represent the best thought of a large number of officers and it seemed well to put the result of their efforts at the disposal of the field artillery at large. With "estimates of the situation" and "decisions" this paper has nothing to do. That is a separate study in itself. The decision having been made, this study takes up the work of executing it. Whatever the decision, good, bad, or indifferent, it must be carried out and can only be so carried out by the issue of proper orders all down the line. In the execution of decisions, this work follows the principles and the technique laid down in the new Drill and Service Regulations for Field Artillery recently prepared by the Field Artillery Board. Units are taken with the organization laid down in the Tables of Organization for the U. S. Army, 1914. In the preparation of this matter, the writer is indebted to many of the officers of the 5th Field Artillery for valuable suggestion and criticism and to Lieut.-Col. Edward F. McGlachlin, 5th Field Artillery, and Capt. Fox Connor, Field Artillery, for a careful review of the manuscript.
