Title:
Bringing Order to Chaos: Historical Case Studies of Combined Arms Maneuver in Large-Scale Combat Operations
Report Date:
2018-09-13
Abstract:
Two days after these losses, the 1st Armored Division and other elements of II US Army Corps began the counteroffensive which would destroy the vaunted Afrika Korps - by then renamed Panzer Gruppe Afrika - and net several hundred thousand German and Italian prisoners of war. That a green US Army unit in its first major combat against a veteran opponent could lose 5,000 Soldiers and then launch a series of counterattacks could be a textbook definition of resilience.
