Captured Pieces Reveal Strength and Weakness of Our Enemy's Weapons
extracted text (Extract Text)
VITAL  to good battle strategy is a

knowledge of what kind of weap-
ons the enemy has, and just what
these weapons can—and cannot—
do. To gain this information, mem-
bers of the Army's Foreign Materiel
Division, following in the wake of a
retreating enemy force, pick up any
new weapons they may find, and
ship them home for careful analy-
sis. Besides learning what types of
guns our troops are facing, the Divi-
sion’s engineers sometimes find in-
novations that can be incorporated
in our own weapons, or make the
important discovery that certain
ordnance parts are being made of
ersatz materials — indicating that
the enemy is also having to retreat
on the production front.
