Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Tactics and Technique of River Crossings A portion of the following pages appeared in the "Professional Memoirs of the Pioneer Corps," published by the Fourth Section of the Engineer Committee. The favorable reception accorded these essays by officers of the corps has prompted me to make them available to a wider circle of officers. In taking this step, I feel that I shall do my share in raising the appreciation in our army of the importance of cooperation between the pioneers and the other arms, to the end that the technical duties of my corps and its special training in combats for the possession of river crossings may be fully utilized in obtaining tactical success. It is not sufficient for leaders and troops to know the principles that govern such combats, as laid down in paragraphs 62-97, Pioneer Field Manual; they must also be familiar to a certain extent with the technical Bide of pioneer work in order to appreciate what the pioneers want to do and can do and to understand how important it is that they be supported if full advantage is to be derived from their work. Sympathetic study of their technical work and the acquisition of a knowledge of their powers and limitations are especially welcomed by pioneers, for their difficult and grateful task of breaking and smoothing the way for the army will be facilitated thereby.
