About This Item
Washington, DC: Air Force History and Museum, 2002. First? Edition. First? Printing. very good. 377, wraps, illus., maps, notes, sources, index, minor wear to covers. A case study of one air-ground team's experience with the theory and practice of tactical air power employed during WWII campaigns against Germany. By the fall of 1944, the Allies had five fighter-bomber tactical air commands (TAC) supporting field armies in NW Europe. Of these the U.S. 3rd Army commanded by Lt. Gen. George Patton and the XIX TAC led by Brig. Gen. Otto Weyland were perhaps the most spectacular air-ground team of the war on the Allied side.
