Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book, which begins with the arrival of the first small group of US Army Special Observers in the United Kingdom in the spring of 1941, recounts how US forces were built up in the UK for the great invasion of 1944, and how they were supplied during operations on the European Continent. The author relates the problems of logistic support to tactical plans and operations, and shows the direct bearing which logistic support or lack of it had on the planning and conduct of combat operations by the field armies. While the story of procurement, movement, and distribution of supplies and manpower is told largely from the point of view of the theater or SOS-Communications Zone, the focus throughout is on the influence which logistic support or lack of it had on the planning and conduct of combat operations by the field armies.
