About the Book

This series will, for the first time provide a detailed and precise examination of the organisation of the US Division through out World War II. Here will be found the Tables of Organisation and the Tables of Equipment starting with those of 1940 as these were in effect when American went to war in 1941. These Tables remained in effect until mid 1942 so were in use during the early campaigns in the Pacific and North Africa. These volumes trace the development of the infantry division from 1940 to 1945. Here will be found precisely how the US Army's principal fighting formation was organised and, with battle experience, how the organisation and equipment was varied from the lessons learnt. For example liaison aircraft and the 2.36" rocket launcher (Bazooka) first made their appearance in the Infantry Division organisation in July 1943. The Division's units strengths altered during the war for example the Military Police varied from 220 to 106 men. The tables show how the role of the radio developed from the relatively few sets in 1940 to the hundreds that were required in 1944. The tables are supported by diagrams that, with the aid of silhouettes of the weapons, and vehicles, shew how each unit was organised. The Division organisation went through a number of alterations until the final wartime organisation in early 1945. Each volume has numerous tables, for instance the Infantry Division volumes have some 360 tables. In addition there are detailed diagrams illustrating the organisation of the Division sub units, which detail the numbers of officers and their ranks, and the numbers of Warrant Officers, NCOs and enlisted men, their equipment and weapons. The unique drawings of the weaponry and equipment ensure that the information is easily understood. Again these tables trace the development of each type of sub unit during the course of the war.
