Airborne command and center. Army Ground Forces study no. 25.
No full textA history of the Airborne Command and Center was compiled by various hands during the course of the war. This was completely reworks by the author, Lt. Col. John T. Ellis, Jr., during the fall of 1945, with the vigorous support of the Chief of Training, Col. M.A. Quinto, and extended to reflect more adequately the development of airborne organization and tactics during the war, as viewed from the Center Headquarters.
The history of the Army Ground Forces as a command was prepared during the course of the war and completed immediately thereafter. The studies prepared in Headquarters, Army Ground Forces, were written by professional historians, three of whom served as commissioned officer and one as a civilian. The histories of the subordinate commands were prepared by historical officers, who except in Second Army, acted as such in addition to other duties.
