{"product_id":"coast-artillery-antiaircraft-gun-technical-war-department-9781940453200","title":"Coast Artillery Antiaircraft Gun Technical Manual: TM 4-325","description":"Originally prepared for the Chief of Coast Artillery and published December 16, 1941 -- just nine days after Pearl Harbor was bombed -- this technical manual was a standard Coast Artillery Gunners reference during WWII. Designed for the men of the anti-aircraft artillery units, the book includes descriptions of, drill procedures for, and service of the 105mm and 37mm guns, the 3-inch gun, and machine guns. It also describes ammunition including transport and handling, gunnery, fire control and position finding, and observation and orientation. The book also provides definitions for anti-aircraft artillery, and discusses motor transportation, communication and supplies. It concludes with a battery of questions intended to be used for qualification of enlisted men, and to ensure crew readiness and efficiency. Originally labeled restricted, this manual was declassified long ago and is here reprinted in book form. Care has been taken to preserve the integrity of the text.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e War Department\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1940453208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781940453200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Periscope Film LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/16\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 336\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.70d","brand":"War Department","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47579889664255,"sku":"9781940453200","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_cb2590b6-d0d9-4607-9b6c-96e4eb83f5bd.jpg?v=1763877364","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/coast-artillery-antiaircraft-gun-technical-war-department-9781940453200","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
