Far Eastern warfare combat methods.
This book presents in brief graphic form certain ideas for engaging the Japanese in combat which have been developed as a result of Allied Nations experience in all theaters. Details of operation are not given since they are invariably modified by circumstances and must be determined by the commander on the ground. Our normal tactics while fundamentally sound must be adapted to meet the Japanese methods of warfare and to fully exploit their weaknesses in doctrine, psychology, weapons, and equipment. The text has been printed in two languages to permit its use by both American and Chinese forces in the Far East. The close study of the tactics presented in this document is recommended for their application when the situation favors their adoption. -Joseph W. Stilwell. Table of contents: introduction; some tactical conceptions; the advance; meeting engagements and attacks; ambushes; defense; withdrawal; night operations; enemy snipers; patrols; interrogation of prisoners; jungle craft; and Far Eastern terrain
