{"product_id":"world-war-ii-infantry-tactics-stephen-bull-9781841766621","title":"World War II Infantry Tactics: Squad and Platoon","description":"Osprey's study of infantry tactics of the squads and platoons of World War II (1939-1945). Despite all technological advances, final mastery of any battlefield depends upon the tight-knit group of footsoldiers trained to manoeuvre, shoot and dig in. This first of a two-part study examines the methods by which the Western infantry of World War II - the German, British and US armies - actually brought their firepower to bear. Drawing upon period training manuals for the evolving theory, and on personal memoirs for the individual practice, this first book covers the organization and tactics of the squad of ten or a dozen men, and the platoon of three or four squads. The text is illustrated with contemporary photographs and diagrams, and with colour plates bringing to life the movement of soldiers on the battlefield.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stephen Bull\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1841766623\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781841766621\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Osprey Publishing (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/25\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 64\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.47lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.72h x 7.36w x 0.20d","brand":"Stephen Bull","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46489307513087,"sku":"9781841766621","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5d4cd67c-be87-4a01-9c19-701b8a44c42e.jpg?v=1736953155","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/world-war-ii-infantry-tactics-stephen-bull-9781841766621","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
