COMBAT CHRONOLOGY 1941-1945 USAAF OPERATIONS WWII Carter & Mueller FREE US MAIL

Description: Offered by Over The Blue Horizon is a BRAND NEW copy of “COMBAT CHRONOLOGY 1941-1945” compiled by Kit C. Carter and Robert Mueller. Published by the Center for Air Force History, this comprehensive chronology is concerned primarily with operations of the US Army Air Forces and its combat units between December 7, 1941 and September 15, 1945. It is designed as a companion reference to the seven-volume ‘History of The Army Air Forces in World War II’ edited by Wesley Frank Craven and James Lea Cate. The research was a cooperative endeavor carried out in the United States Air Force historical archives by the Research Branch of the Albert F. Simpson Historical Research Center. Such an effort has demanded certain changes in established historical methodology, as well as some arbitrary rules for presentation of the results. After International and US events, entries are arranged geographically. They begin with events at Army Air Forces Headquarters in Washington then proceed eastward around the world, using the location of the headquarters of the numbered air forces as the basis for placement. For this reason, entries concerning the Ninth Air Force while operating in the Middle East follow Twelfth Air Force. When that headquarters moved to England in October 1943, the entries shifted to follow Eighth Air Force. The entries end with those numbered air forces which remained in the Zone of the Interior, as well as units originally activated in the ZI, then designated for later movement overseas, such as Ninth and Tenth Air Forces. The ZI entries do not include Eighth and Twentieth Air Forces, which were established in the ZI with the original intent of placing them in those geographical locations with which they became historically identified. For these two units, original actions are shown either under AAF or in their intended geographic area of location. This is an authoritative publication that remains valued enough to be ‘published on demand’ by secondary publishers; note that this is the ORIGINAL copy published by the United States Air Force. This 744 page, 6.75 x 9.5 inch softcover was published by the United States Air Force History Office in 1991; this copy is BRAND NEW and still wrapped in its original protective shrink-wrap.
