Reconnaissance in France
BY Maj. George Fieidins Eliot

what their purpose may be. the Ger.
man survivors have no means OF know.
ing.
Under these conditions the German
commander in France can do only one
thing. Deprived Of the ability to carry
on widespread. continuous aerial recon-
Nuisance he must send out q screen of
accommodating patrols, small elements
OF armored cars, motorcyclists, or in
fantry IN light motor transportation
He must try to locate the heads of the
advancing American columns, keep In
touch with them, work round their
hanks, estimate their strength, and thus
gradually form In his mind q picture of
their general direction and their inten-
tions.
This Is far from satisfactory when
dealing with swift-moving motorized
forces, because by the time all the in
formation from the patrols can get back
to headquarters and sorted out there
ana htted together into q general pat
tern, 1t may be too late to do ANYTHING
to prevent this Allied d-controlled pattern
from developing into an Allied victory.
Remember that while all this Is going
on the Allies are far better informed
about what the Germans are doing.
Their own air reconnaissance il com.
plete. and continually vigilant. They
know where the Germans are falling
back, and in what direction, and in what
strength. They know where the Ger
mans are trying to advance or to send
up reinforcements and supplies.
Not only do they know the enemy's
every move, but from the air they are
aole to take steps to hamper or delay
MS moves-by the destruction of bridges
ana railways, and by direct attacks
against his motor columns or his rail-
road trains.
Thus the Allied commanders act with
full knowledge Of what Is in front of
them, and what the enemy is capable Of
doing or Is trying to do, while the
German commander must make moves
more or less blindly, on the bases of
fragmentary and uncertain informa-
ton, with the full knowledge that even
such information as he has may be
fatally out Of date and that such moves
as he may make will be instantly known
to an enemy who has the power to take
timely countermeasures to nullify them.
This Is tremendous advantage Tor
the Allied command. It was not 30
marked while our troops were cooped
up In the Normandy Peninsula, but It
Is Of overpowering importance now that
the battle Of Normandy has become the
second battle OF France and maneuver
warfare over wide area has begun,
toossris4 -. New Yort Tribune. fns,
Evening star., 1944-08-14

The cloak OF ofiicial silence still hides
from us the strength of the American
armored and motorized columns which
are somewhere deep In the heart of
France between the Seine and the
Loire Rivers.
we can guess their purpose-the cut
ting OF the supply lines Of the German
7th Army IN Normandy and the even
tual destruction of that army. That
we did not know where they are is q
natural outgrowth Of the very evident
fact that the enemy did not know,
either.
This is because the enemy has not
aerial reconnaissance. Our air superior
ity has been such that in good weather
the enemy can hardly fly reconnais-
cannot keep up the continuous recon-
naissance. supplemented by photo
graphy. which is necessary In order to
obtain the full, accurate up-to-the-min-
ute information upon which sound
military decisions must be based in the
swift-changing conditions Of modern
war.
A glimpse OF an American column on
such road, caught by q high-nying,
harrassed German pilot, does not tell
his commander anything except that
an American force, of such an estimated
strength was at such a place, moving
in such a direction, at such and such
q time.
What the commander wants to know
at once is: Did the column continue
in that direction, or did It turn right
or left at the next crossroads? Was
1t just an advance guard, or did it rep
resent the full American strength in
that vicinity? Was it . reconnaissance
unit Digit tanks and armored cars)
OF did 1t have medium tanks and in
fantry in armored troop carriers with
it. DID 1t have artillery? How many
guns? Were there other columns on
adjacent. parallel roads, and 20 on.
and so on?
Nor Is the German commander much
better of when he gets a report from
some element of his ground forces For
example. let US say that in an imaginary
French town there Is a small German
garrison. This force is suddenly over
whelmed by rush OF American armor.
Some Of the Germans are killed, others
get away.
They use their radio to report the
facts: But what facts? Just that the
Americans are now In the town Of So
and-so and that there were enough OF
them to run the German garrison out.
They had some armor. They attacked
suddenly. But what 70 behind them, and
