Book Description
Essentially a summary of what had been learned about combined operations during the Second World War. Of great importance to the reader in seeing what had been under consideration for D-Day and other operations, this is a valuable source of all information on the subject. Covers channels of command, orders, details of landing ships and craft, dimensions of vehicles, equipment and ‘awkward equipment,’ and other material. Well worth the read.
The original was compiled by Major George Boultwood of the Devonshire Regiment. The work was done in preparation for the invasion of Japan and Major Boultwood was recovering from wounds received on D+2 when the landing craft he was in hit a mine.
