Condensed Analysis of the Ninth Air Force in the European Theater of Operations
[Special Study]
An analytical study of the operating procedures and functional organization of tactical air power as developed by the Ninth Air Force in the war of Western Europe.
This study contains a short history of the Ninth Air Force in World War II, from the build-up before the invasion of the European continent through subsequent combat operations in 1944 and 1945.
More than a narrative history, the study examines the problems that the Ninth experienced in conducting joint combat operations with ground forces across the rapidly moving battlefront in France and Germany.
In its comprehensiveness, the study also touches on aircrew training and rotation, air base defense organization, civil engineering support, and intelligence.
Originally published in March 1946 by the Headquarters, Army Air Forces, Office of the Assistant Chief of Air Staff, Washington, D.C., as a soft cover booklet measuring 6.5 × 9.5 inches.
This is the reprint edition in the USAF Warrior Studies series, published in 1984 by the Office of Air Force History, U.S. Air Force, Washington, D.C.
