Translated from French General Headquarters notes and issued in 1918 for the American Expeditionary Force’s Artillery School at Saumur, this classified pamphlet refined WorldWarI air?ground coordination just as U.S. squadrons commenced operations over the Western Front. It details artillery?adjustment techniques using biplane observers, panel signals, and early wireless sets, offering granular tables of burst corrections at varyingaltitudes. Few originals survived post?Armistice censorship, giving this copy exceptional research value for aviation historians tracing the doctrinal roots of modern forward?air?control. Cover has wear and slight tears.
