Abstract
This issue of The Coast Artillery Journal contains the following articles: "Practical Methods of Conservation of Manpower in Theatres of Operation," by Lieutenant Colonel Jay W. Grissinger, G.S.; "Position Finding by Airplane," by Captain George W. Ricker, C.A.C. (Editor's Note: Captain Ricker has furnished a remarkably concise and clear cut statement of the initial experiment in a method of long range fire control whose subsequent development, if vigorously exploited wherever possible, bids fair to revolutionize the potential ties of coast defense armament); "Battery 'A' 51st Artillery Fires G.P.F.'s at Moving Targets," extracts from the report of Captain Robert N. Mackin, C.A.C., with comments by Major Rodney H. Smith, C.A.C., the Regimental Commander; and "Doctrine of Anti-Aircraft Defense in France," a report from the Military Attache in France; "Tables of Organization, French Anti-Aircraft Artillery," a report from the Military Attache in France. This issue also contains an editorial on the work that lies ahead for the Coast Artillery Corps in the areas of communications, fire control, observation of fire, and intelligence; and solutions to Employment of Heavy Artillery problems. The Bulletin Board contains training regulations for Coast Artillery Gunners, including Object of Examination, Classification for Gunners, Eligibility of Candidates, Instruction of Candidates, Boards of Examination, Conduct of the Examination, Report of the Board of Examination, and Scope of the Examination.
