Western Naval Task Force Operation Plan No. 7 - 43

Abstract

Characteristics of Theater: In order to make the necessary informational for planning available as early as practicable and because lack of time does not permit inclusion of more than essential information for conduct of the operation, ANNEX A, has been printed and distributed in sections with references, insofar as practicable, to publications and maps of general distribution. Information available to the date of printing-- hydrographic, topographic defense installations and enemy strength--has been included on an overprint to the GSGS sorties maps which are being distributed in sufficient quantity to be available to all ships and major landing aircraft. Beach diagrams, panoramic beach sketches and large scale chartlets should be consulted for detailed information on the assault areas. All commanders of groups should ensure that these graphic presentations are distributed to all boat wave commanders and boat officers, as well as the officers in beach parties and commanding officers of landing craft and closes support craft.
