Bad Weather Fovors Germans
In Italy, Mai. Eliot Declares

tending planes to slip through and
perform tasks which in clear
weather they could not hope to
perform, because they would be
pounded upon by hostile fighters
also.
In general an advancing army
will be taking over new airfields, or
will be improvising airfields in its
forward areas many of which may
become begged down in bad
weather; while the defender, es-
pecially if he is retiring through
territory which has long been in
his possession, as will generally be
the case in Europe, has behind him
a good system of permanent, we'll
surfaced airfelds which are much
less affected by weather conditions.
Recent experience in Tunisia and
in Italy tends to emphasize the
very considerable advantage de-
rived by the defender from this
particular item.
A good deal may depend on the
matter of experience in dealing with
the particular kind of weather con-
ditionS to be expected in any given
theater of operations. Thus, in the
first terrible winter of war in Rus
sia, the German army suffered cas-
ualtieS from which it has never
been able fully to recover, because
its men were not accustomed to the
rigors of the Russian winter weather.
No amount of instruction which
they could be given as to taking
care of themselves and of their
weapons and equipment could re-
place the day-by-day lifelong ex-
perience of the Russian peasant,
who as soldier simply did instinc-
lively all those things which he
had always done to enable him to
live and move and work in the win
ter.
1t was not until British troops
had become as seasoned to the
hardships of desert warfare as ROM
mels Afrika Korps that they began
to make headway against that vet
eran organization. The same was
true of our troops in New Guinea,
who have had to adapt themselves
through experience and habit to
the conditions of jungle fighting.
In this respect, at any rate, we
may be glad that the bulk of our
American Army seems likely to be
employed in Western and Southern
Europe, where the climate is not
unlike that of large part of the
United States. We will not suffer
any regional handicap, therefore.
but We will still suffer the ines
capable fact that there will be
some bad weather and that, being
on the offensive, it will count against
us and may at times upset the best
laid plans. 1t is just one more of
the sobtacles that must and will be
overcome in our. progress toward
victory.

OF every commanderin- chiefs staff
1t is true, of course, that in the
tactical sense bad weather hampers
the defense in moving in force for
Counterattack; but in general, and
over The whole theater of operations,
it is the side which is on the often
sive which desires to move, while
the object of the defender is usually
attained if he can stay where he is.
Another reason why bad weather
favors the defense is its effect on
air operations. The attacker will
always possess air superiority. He
would not be attacking if he did
not possess it. He wants to make
the fullest possible use of his air
force: he wants to be able to count
on the successful completion of
the various missions assigned to it.
Bad weather introduces a factor
of chance. and chance favors the
weaker side in war.
