Tactical Doctrine of Troop Carrier Aviation

Abstract

It was requested that the Army Air Forces Board initiate a project to prepare a Field Manual on the tactics and technique of Troop Carrier Aviation. There is no known manual on this subject, as such, though there are many publication incorporating the various phases of troop carrier operations, usually under the heading of air transport. It is desired that this project serve to consolidate the loose ends of troop carrier aviation into a compact manual which will serve as a useful guide and to clarify many of the misunderstandings on this type of aviation.
