Steve R. Waddell

United States Army Logistics

The Normandy Campaign, 1944

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The U.S. Army supply organization for the Normandy Invasion, although very impressive, should have done a better job in the summer of 1944. The purpose of this work is to examine an aspect of military history which, as many military historians have pointed out, has received little attention.
