Army Builds New Division for Defense Against Tanks

cars, horse cavalry, or observation air
craft.
The 5th Division in the Tennessee
war games moved as often as four times
In one 48-hour battle" Usually the
square divisions took up a defensive
position and held on as long as they
could.
Young men who were shop clerks,
farmers. collegians or just corner loungers
less than year ago went through o
month Of exhausting field exercises and
came out with a health record that was
better than that of soldiers in the COM
parative shelter and comfort of home
cantonments.
The sick rate for the 77000 men during
the month was only IL per cent, Col. P.
w. Gibson, surgeon of the I'd Army.
reported in his summation at the final
discussion. The normal rate In the
camps is about 3 per cent.
Even with close to 10000 vehicles from
23-ton tanks to quarter-ton trucks
rambling all over 900 square miles of
strange terrain-much of the time
under blackout conditions-there were
only seven accidental deaths. An indica-
ton OF the morale could be taken from
the fact there was only one suicide.
Two soldiers died from natural causes
Soldiers on maneuvers don't have
time to get SICK" Col. Gibson said.
The whitening heat and choking dust
that covered everything wherever the
iv, Nd nj
lands would have laid low less hardly
trained men.
Through the day and night they
fought" for 48 hours at time, eating
from kitchens that cooked as they
moved drinking water from engineers
publication systems that made any
supply potable and sleeping where the
tide of battle" left them.
Psychologically they got stern lesson.
For the first two weeks Of the ma
neuvers they seemed to be unenthusiastic
about playing at war. They took little
trouble to conceal themselves from even
the few obsolescent observation airplanes
that were the enemy" scouting force.
Then the second armored division ar
rived for the last two weeks of the ma
neuvers. The tanks and armored We
hicles were a bit of realism-the noise
could frighten even if there wasn't
enough blank ammunition available for
firing to scare the COWS in the pastures.
When the tanks charged in the first
battles the men jumped up, some in awe
and some in terror that they would be
run over They learned quickly, though,
and at the end Of the maneuvers the
men, even though the effort was need
less, were getting behind trees, throwing
rocks, sticks, anything they could lay
their hands on. They were getting to
be fighters.
Evening star., 1941-07-13

Then, at the end of 50-mile march,
hundreds Of the tanks rendezvoused in
woods outside the town, all famed out
ready for the charge that would mop up
like fleet of street cleaners.
rode in Capt. Maxwell Rosenthals
tank for that attack. The butt of
80 caliber machine gun-the assistant
drivers weapon-was between my legs.
I grasped it to hold myself steady. 1t
swung with me when the tank rocked
and lurched. Scores of men scurried
in front of the tank, each one seemingly
etched in the green of the woods right
in front of the machine guns muzzle.
AS the tanks charged, ripping through
fences, over a field of new corn here,
cotton there and through light stone
walls and rail fences, the soldiers jumped
behind trees. Even had their rifles
and pistols been loaded they would have
been as Intellectual as wands against the
tanks, "buttoned up" tight with only
Sits, protected by shattelproof glass,
through which to see.
All the 'anti-tank weapons--no di-
vision had nearly as many as the present
tables of organization call Ior-nad been
placed on the big defense circle. Crce
that was split, there was no defense left.
The mechanical division fights from
its vehicles. Motorized outfits are hauled
to the fighting zone, marched to the
lines and fight on foot.
One high general officer says the bulky
infantry divisions are worthless in 'front.'
line combat.
Another general, Maj. Gen. Frederic
Y. Smith, who commanded the 5th,
27th and 30th Divisions in the first two
weeks Of the maneuvers, declared most
of the Arny's divisions-the bulky, hard
to-move square" ones-were hang
over Of World War I days" and could
not meet mechanized attacks.
However many high officers of the
Second Army say they believe that the
Army, with its present organize ton.
could double the anti-tank weapons per
Evening star., 1941-07-13

easily, readily, under their own power
to meet the constant threat of tanks.
This new division which will take the
field in November in the Carolinas will
have that mobile hitting power.
In the new kind of warfare, such as
that simulated in Tennessee as a prelude
to two complete armies opposing each
other in Louisiana in September, an
army can no more sit and wait
for armored divisions to hit than you
can stick an unprotected chin up to
Joe Louis in the ring. The armored
division can strike from any direction if
there is no mobile, destroying opposition
able to spring out and meet it.
To withdraw from a mechanical
divisions attack and gather in behind a
ring of guns, as two divisions did in
Tennessee maneuvers, is like driving
Jack rabbits into corral and then beat
ing them to death
The 9th New York; and 3Oth
Georgia, Tennessee and the Carolinas)
Divisions backed to the outskirts of the
little town of Tullahoma put all its light
dIllueIy-i0 NM. anu 81 MN. rlIeS-
on the rim of the defense circle. The
infantry was packed behind it.
Even with the umpires ruling that a
gunner needed only to point his weapon
at tank to have it ruled out of action
1t was only a short job to break hole
through the defense and once through,
the battle" was finished. 1t had been
called off to keep the tanks from running
through the town. In war they would
have famed through the break in the
wall of guns and cut out the heart of
the defending force-its communications
and lines of supply.
In a time like that valor is useless.
Made Way for Tanks.
The armored divisions artillery and
mfantrymen, on trucks, had made the
way for the tanks. When they ran up
to artillery commanding sharp defiles-
the worst terrain tanks can encounter
the motorized artillerymen set up their
guns and, still theoretically, blasted the
way for the tanks.

CHARLESTON, w. Va, July PA
tank car on a railroad track is just a
loaded tank car to most folks-and
nothing more.
But if a person sees enough tank
cars in the Kanawha Valley, he can
figure out what some 5000 100000 worth
Of industries nestled in this mountain
protected valley are doing for national
defense.
Some Of the cars are marked liquid
chlorine" and 1t is certain that not all
that substance will be used to make the
materials a housewife used to bleach
clothes.
Some are labeled ammonia" and it's
safe guess that the ammonia will be
used for other things than making win
dows shine.
An occasional Army ordnance tank
car will give more than a hint that
some chemical products have a Learing
on national defense.
Tank cars aren't the only signs. An
other firm produces ferrochrome, an
alloy which is just as useful in making
armor piercing projectiles as in making
stainless steel cutlery for the dining

against the achievement Of the high
standard of excellence which you, as
an expert car washer, have set for
yourself.
You have figured out that your time
is much too valuable to devote to car
washing, and it is waste Of talent and
money for you to do job which could
be intrusted to lower-grade worker.
You had intended, after washing the
coat of wax. But, though you thought
there was a can of wax in the garage,
you can't find it. Wouldn't 1t be better
to wait until you can get hold Of some
wax?
Though the car needs washing, there
Is something that needs doing more:
for example, watering the perennial
border. dn this case, you must be
careful to suggest q task that is less
tedious than car washing)
The hose that is used in the washing
will have to be attached to the spigot
at the kitchen sink. That will necessitate
leaving the kitchen window open. And
surely nobody wants flies in the
kitchen!
As matter of fact, you are feeling
pretty well played out. You could do
far better by waiting until tomorrow,
when you will be thoroughly rested.
Paste this list in your garage, where it
will be readily accessible, consult it in
time Of need and use whichever excuse
appears to be most appropriate to the
occasion. You might leave little space
for excuses Of your own making. It's
surprising how they come to you, once
you put your mind o. them.

Many men become slaves to car wash
ing. But they have only themselves to
blame. That is because they are lacking
In originality. When they are ordered
to wash a car they 60 right out and
wash it. 1t never occurs to them that
while there is only one good reason why
@ car should be washed, there are a
number of good reasons why it should
not be washed-that is not Immediately
For the benefit of the less imaginative
men who are in danger Of enslavement,
here is brief list of the more obvious
reasons why they should not i'm
mediately roll up their sleeves and get to
work:
The car really doesn't need washing.
You wouldn't know 1t was soiled unless
you were to get right up on 1t and look
at 1t very closely.
There is every indication that 1t Is
about to rain; so, If little patience
1t will shortly wash itself.
If you wash the car now, 1t will be
out Of service for a couple of hours. 1t
would be a shame to subject any
member of the family to disappointment
and inconvenience just for the sake Of
removing little crust of CRIME.
If you wash the car today, it is un-
doubtedly going to be dirty again by
tomorrow afternoon. Consequently, the
longer you put off washing the car. the
longer you put off the time when it
will again become dirty.
It is now near sundown and the light
k getting bad. Soon, you will not be
able TO see what you are doing and
may overlook q smudge. This initiates

About half of the Army field force
is made up of National Guard divisions
that are square" as opposed to the
regular triangular" divisions that re-
suited from streamlining several years
ago.
The bulk of the square division is in
four regiments Of infantry; three of
artillery. The infantry regiments are
grouped into brigades of two regiments
each; the artillery into one brigade.
When the division commander wants
to move he transmits his orders to the
brigade commanders and they in turn
send orders to the regiments For each
battle the infantry and artillery regl-
ments are assigned to their jobs.
