ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
The US armed forces pioneered amphibious warfare in the Pacific and by the
time of the D-day landings they had perfected the special equipment and
tactics necessary for this extraordinarily difficult and risky form of
warfare. This fact-packed study details the doctrine, equipment and tactics
that evolved between the North African landings of November 1942 and those
in the South of France in August 1944, and illustrates many aspects of the
physical realities of assault landings through the use of photos, diagrams
and color plates.
