OFFICERS TOSTUDY
AERIAL MANEUVERS
Army Moves to FamiIiarize All
Branches With Aviation
Corps Tactics.

In an effort to familiarize officers Of
all branches Of the Army with the
problems and advantages of aviation in
military operation. the War Department
today issued instructions to all Corps
Area commanders that whenever Air
Corps units engage in maneuvers in
their areas in connection with ground
forces, officers of other arms who volun-
teer for such duty be attached to the
air units for duty as observers.
The order came as a result Of the
Ohio maneuvers last May. in which the
flrst large scale joint operations between
the Air Corps and ground forces took
place. These maneuvers, the War De-
partment announced. demonstrated that
more detailed knowledge of the TASTES
and opcrational technique Of the air
forces is needed by officers Of field ranks
of the other Army services.
1T is considered that the best rnetl1oe
of inparting such knowledge is by the
attachment of field officers of other
arms TO the air units during maneuveTs
or exercises" it was announced by the
War Department.
Today's instructions provide that the
number of ound officers to be assigned
to the air TX ces shall be determined by
the corps area commander after con-
Sultation with the commander of the
air units engaged, and will be governed
by the size and scope of the exercises.
the number and type Of air units par
ticlpating, and the availability OF suit
able officers volunteering for this duty.
