While thundering tanks struck fear into the hearts of their enemies it was the machine guns, mortars and light cannon that proved to be most important, causing the majority of casualties suffered during World War II. Common principles were shared across units but the wide variety of weapons available to the different armies altered the way they were used in battle.Focusing on the US, British, German and Soviet troops, this title offers a comprehensive guide to infantry fire support tactics used through World War II. Combat reports are complemented by specially commissioned artwork to show the way in which tactics varied, and highlight how developments obliged opposing armies to review their own methods.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: Law & PoliticsBook Series: EliteTopic: History, Military HistoryRelease Year: 2016 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
