General description of the collection: This collection consists of a negative photostat of a report entitled, "Tactics & techniques developed by VIII Fighter Command" prepared by the Analysis Section, Army Air Forces Evaluation Board. The original report was prepared on 27 October 1944 as "a consideration of tactics and techniques as developed by VIII Fighter Command, Eighth Air Force." The report is divided into three sections. The first section describes the performance characteristics of types of fighters used by the VIII Fighter Command pilots and by their German opponents. The second section describes the tactics of fighter escorts for bombing runs, and the third section describes the strafing techniques of escort fighters. All three sections include excerpts of interviews with U.S. fighter pilots from the VIII Fighter Command. The report also contains charts and graphs, photographs (negative photostats) of planes and photographs of strafing runs taken from the 16mm film reels carried in the noses of VIII Fighter Command planes. Captured German military documents and interviews with German prisoners of war provide the enemy's point of view on the American's tactics.

This volume focuses on the little known official Army Air Force report commissioned by the Eighth Air Force's VIII Fighter Command (FC) in May 1944. The detailed document chronicled the experiences of 24 pilots who had seen extensive service in the frontline escorting B-17s and B-24s on daylight raids deep into Germany. Briefed to provide a candid report on combat flying that could be used as a teaching 'manual' for potential fighter pilots, the VIII FC veterans openly discuss their secrets to success, and survival in the deadly skies over occupied Europe. Exactly half of those pilots who contributed to The Long Reach subsequently achieved ace status.

This Army tactics, techniques, and procedures (ATTP) reinforces the fundamentals of mission command established in field manual (FM) 3-0, Operations; FM 5-0, The Operations Process; and FM 6-0, Mission Command. Whereas the above manuals focus on the fundamentals of mission command, this manual provides commanders and staff officers with tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTP) essential for the exercise of mission command.This is a new Army publication. It includes many of the appendices currently found in FM 5-0 and FM 6-0 that addressed the "how to" of mission command. By consolidating this material into a single publication, Army leaders now have a single reference to assist them with TTP associated with planning, preparing for, executing, and continually assessing operations. This ATTP also enables the Army to better focus the material in future editions of FMs 5-0 and 6-0 on the fundamentals of the operations process and mission command, respectively.

This widely praised study draws from both American and German sources to show how the U.S. Army Air Forces cleared the way for the successful Allied invasion of France. In 1944 a revitalized American leadership abandoned the unsuccessful approach of strategic bombing and instead focused on air superiority, practically chasing the enemy out of the sky and eliminating Germany's supply of trained pilots. Examining the people, technologies, command decisions, and key events of the war over Germany, the authors prove conclusively that the winning of air superiority -- not the success of strategic bombing -- played a more essential part in the Allied victory in Europe

Merriam Press Military Reprint 22. (January 2013). American fighter pilots of the Eighth Air Force provide their rules for conducting ground attack operations against the enemy. There was much more to ground attack than flying low and shooting up anything and everything, and these pilots tell how they did it in their own words. An extremely rare manual published in August 1944, just when ground attack was becoming a major factor in the war across the European continent. Original copies are very scarce; a photocopy of this manual was acquired back in the early 1980s. Unfortunately, that copy was also a photocopy of a photocopy of an original and in the edition published several years ago the photographs were of very poor quality. In June 2001 a customer ordered a copy of that edition because he was looking for information on the unit his grandfather flew with during the war, a P-47 pilot with the 353rd Fighter Group, who is one of the pilots who contributed to this manual. The colonel was willing to loan his original for copying and also an original copy of "The Long Reach," a similar work about fighter escort operations (this second work is also now available in this reprint series). Originally published 30 August 1944 by VIII Fighter Command. 76 photos, 1 drawing, 1 diagram.
