The New Infantry Drill Regulations United States Army with Rifle Marksmanship Caliber .30 Model 1903 Springfield Caliber .30 M1 and U. S. Carbine Caliber .30 MI Military Courtesy and Discipline Interior Guard Duty The Infantry Pack and Equipment
Harrisburg PA: The Military Service Publishing Co 1944. Eleventh Edition stated. Presumed first printing thus. Hardcover. Good. 6 424 pages. Includes: illustrations sketches diagrams photographs Tabular data. Cover has some wear and soiling. Topics covered include: The Soldier without Arms The Soldier with Arms Drill for Foot Troops Drill for Unites with Animal-Drawn Carts or Pack Animals Drill for Units with Motor Carriers Drill for Motor and Wagon Units Formations of Battalion and Regiment Ceremonies Extended Order Signals Rifle Marksmanship U.S. Rifle Caliber .30 Model 1903 "Springfield" Rifle Marksmanship U.S. Rifle Caliber .30 M1 Rifle Marksmanship U.S. Rifle Carbine Caliber .30 M1 Military Courtesy and Discipline Interior Guard Duty and The Infantry Pack and Equipment. This captures the state-of-practice the state-of-knowledge and the state-of-the-art during the later phases of the Second World War and has been informed by the experiences of United States Army and other military land forces engaged in vigorous combat in varied geographic locations and diverse conditions. The drill prescribed herein was designed for general use and could be adapted to any type of units. Stress should be place on precision in execution of the manual of arms and in marching in step with proper alinement. Nothing inspires the military spirit more than to see or to be a part of a compact group moving in unison confidently and to a measured cadence. The purposes of the drill to enable the commander to move his command in an orderly manner to aid in disciplinary training to enhance the morale through ceremonies and to give junior officers and noncommissioned officers practice in commanding troops. Foot drill is a part of the training regimen of organized military and paramilitary elements worldwide. "Foot drill" or "Drill" stems from time since antiquity when soldiers would march into battle be expected to gather in a formation and react to words of command from their commanders once the battle commenced. Much of the drill done today is either ceremonial or implemented as a core part of training in the armed forces. Military discipline is enhanced by drill as it requires instant obedience to commands and synchronized completion of said commands with the others in the unit. Drill proved useful when marching formations of soldiers cross-country. For example officers could form men from an eight-wide route march formation to a two-wide formation for passing through gates and other narrow passages without losing time or cohesion. Drill was used to efficiently maneuver formations around and through obstacles. Drill was often used as a forerunner to great battles; during them it justified itself. It was also utilized after battles where quick restoration of the corporate unity of an element was required. United States military drill originated in 1778 as part of a training program implemented by Baron Friedrich von Steuben to improve the discipline and organization of soldiers serving in the Continental Army. The following year Baron von Steuben by then a Major General and the Inspector General of the Continental Army wrote the Army's first field manual "The Regulations for the Order and Discipline of the Troops of the United States" which has come to be more commonly known as the "Blue Book". The methods of drill that von Steuben initiated remained largely unchanged between their inception and the time of the American Civil War. One major change to come about since that time is that troops now march at a cadence of 120 steps per minute instead of the original 76 steps per minute at the time of the American Revolution. The stated aim of drill is to "enable a commander or noncommissioned officer to move his unit from one place to another in an orderly manner; to aid in disciplinary training by instilling habits of precision and response to the leader's orders; and to provide for the development of all soldiers in the practice of commanding troops." Between branches of the military as well as between the military forces of various countries the methods of drill will vary. In the United States Armed Forces the basis of drill procedures can be traced to von Steuben's "Blue Book". Drill is most commonly seen at ceremonial and public functions and has evolved into something of an art-form. Many nations have dedicated Drill Teams. The Military Service Publishing Co hardcover

United States Army, The Ordnance School
The Ordnance Company Medium Maintenance The Ordnance Battalion Maintenance; Ordnance School Text OS 9-25
Aberdeen Proving Ground MD: The Ordnance School 1941. Presumed First Edition First printing thus. Four-hole punched and held together with two two pronged clips. Good. Format is approximately 8 inches by 13 inches four-hole punched with two two pronged clips holding the text together. 3iii-vii 250 pages. Three pages of errata sheets. 18 appendices. 50 Figures. Printed single-sided only. Cover worn torn and soiled with some page wear and soiling noted. Pencil marks and notations on cover and some pages. The major portion of this text appears to be an early version of Field Manual No. 9-10 The Ordnance Company -Medium Maintenance; The Ordnance Battalion--Maintenance. It was apparently expected to be issued in July 1941 the the date of issue is blank. FM 9-10 Ordnance Field Manual Ordnance Field Maintenance was published on April 20 1942. There are substantial differences between this text and what was officially published as FM 9-10. This publication was intended solely for use as an Ordnance School text for instruction purposes only. It was not intended for general distribution to agencies or personnel outside the Ordnance training Center at Aberdeen Proving ground Md. It is reasonable to conclude that this instructional text was also a draft text for what would eventually become FM 9-10 and that the experience gained in its use at The Ordnance School contributed to the development of material changes. As such then this early version not labeled as a draft provides a significant and perhaps unique insight into the development of Ordnance doctrine training and practice at the Company and Battalion level at the time when the United States entered the Second World War. One page on Machine Gun Repairs to the M9197A1 laid in. The purpose of this manual was to present a coordinated and complete picture of the problem of ordnance field maintenance together with a logical solution of that problem. While this manual will be found to be helpful as a reference for operation of the maintenance organizations in garrison it was intended primarily as a guide for use in field operations. There are included in the various parts of this manual a discussion of a typical ordnance field shop and a method of conducting operations; a discussion of details pertaining to a typical maintenance company; and discussions of particular problems in ordnance field maintenance as they are encountered and solved. Except where obviously necessary in the interests of uniformity throughout all ordnance service it is not intended that this manual shall impose unnecessary restrictions on the imagination and initiative of ordnance personnel responsible for the operation of the units covered by this manual. On the contrary it is intended that the thoughts and imagination of such personnel will be stimulated to evolve more satisfactory solutions to the problems of ordnance field service. The organization of ordnance maintenance in the field army is based on the principle of progressive increases in available maintenance facilities from front to rear. The equipment and personnel assigned to each echelon are designed to carry the normal load of that echelon plus a certain peak load of the subordinate echelons. In Part I. The Ordnance Company - Medium Maintenance there are Chapters on General; Organization and Equipment; Operations; Duties of Individuals; and Administrative Details. Part II. The Ordnance Battalion Maintenance has Chapters on General and Operations. A list of appendices follow and are in turn followed by the list of Figures. There are specific discussions of ordnance weapons and vehicles and materiel. There is significant discussion of the inspection of ordnance materiel especially ammunition. The Ordnance School unknown

United States, Department of the Army, Headquarters
The Tactical Use of Atomic Weapons; Unclassified Military Effects Department of the Army Pamphlet 39-1
Washington DC: United States Department of the Army Headquarters 1955. Presumed First Edition First printing. Wraps. Good. i 1 59 3 pages. Figures including fold-out. Sketch map. Index chart to damage estimation charts and nomographs. Cover has some wear and soiling/staining. Marked For Official Use Only but this limitation is understood to no longer apply. This pamphlet provides an unclassified basis for the utilization of atomic weapons in courses at the various schools and in training. The effects data herein are based primarily on the unclassified data contained in The Effects of Atomic Weapons and in Radiological Defense Volume II but also on other unclassified sources. The methods of casualty and damage estimation herein have been so designed as to provide an understanding of the role of target analysis in the tactical use of atomic weapons without at the same time burdening nonspecialized students with the details of a comprehensive target analysis. It is intended that this text be utilized for classroom purposes. The text has been reviewed by Headquarters Armed Forces Special Weapons Project. The damage estimation system it contains is based on certain material produced by the SANDIA CORPORATION. While the atomic bomb is admittedly a weapon of great power it is not to be regarded as an absolute weapon-that is to say it is not a weapon against which there is no defense. Throughout history the introduction of every new weapon has been followed by the development of defensive measures which hare lessened its effectiveness. However the tactical utilization of atomic weapons requires an understanding of the characteristics and effects of these weapons under various circumstances. In the event of a future war a commander must consider the enemy's use of atomic weapons in his own strategic plans or tactical decisions. He must know what precautionary measures will minimize the hazard to his own forces when taking advantage of the situation created by an atomic attack on the enemy. Further in an emergency each member of the Armed Services may have to act possibly without warning for his own protection. The explosion of an atomic bomb resembles that of an ordinary high explosive HE bomb in the respect that the explosion is due to the rapid release of a large amount of energy in a small space.
