Shrapnel in Warfare.

Shrapnel is most effective against
prone skirmishers at ranges from
1000 to 5000 meters, when burst
twenty-eight to twenty-five meters
short of the target, and against stand
ing skirmishes at the same ranges
when burst fifty-six to forty-fve me-
tiers short Of the target. Black also
points out that single shrapnel from
a light field howitzer produces a
greater number of hits when the point
of burst is favorably situated than one
nred from a field gun.
Shrapnel is also playing most i'm
portant part in aerial warfare, and of
these antiaircraft shrapnel, all of
which embody the same general es-
sentials. there is perhaps none more
effective than that known as "Ehrhardt
antiaircraft shrapnel."
