WORLD WAR II AVIATION PHOTOGRAPHY Aircraft Performance: Performance Data of Current Operational Aircraft

194312163Harrisburg PA: Army Air Forces Intelligence School 1943. Very good. Quarto unpaginated about 100pp. illustrated with 83 original tipped-in photographs and an envelope containing 13 more loose and unidentified images laid-in. Housed in the original cardstock clasped folder. Many of the pages have a bottom fold which does not fully open without the potential to tear though all of the contents can be read with some effort. Some pages a touch foxed and a few prints are loosened from their pages and laid-in in the right place. Overall in very good condition. A well-organized and illustrated military textbook for a wartime class on aircraft identification which was probably taught in many places but organized at the US Army Air Force base in Harrisburg. An introductory sheet in perfect bureaucratic fashion placed near the end of this textbook states: "The course in Aircraft Identification consists of ten hours spaced over a period of six weeks." It goes on to list a series of 42 aircraft--American German Italian French and Japanese--which will be easily identified by all successful students by the end of the course. The first few dozen pages consist of detailed folding charts with data on dimensions payloads etc. Another section of about 12pp. gives a background on various best practices when trying to identify aircraft as well as some of the principles behind the course. The course utilized the "WEFT" system wings engine fuselage tail to help individuals soldiers intelligence agents etc. identify planes in the field from various angles at different heights and in certain contexts. Most of the pages dedicated to individual planes contain two photographs from different angles and with different shading trying to mimic real battlefield conditions under which someone might try to identify an aircraft. An unusually engaging wartime military textbook appealing to photography aviation and military collectors alike. Not located in OCLC thus notably absent in the holdings of the Army War College Library which retains most technical manuals and course books. Army Air Forces Intelligence School unknown

Cold War Intelligence Training United States Army Intelligence School Archive on Soviet Systems Mapping and Nuclear Doctrine 1959 to 1963

1959223101959. United States Army Intelligence School. Intelligence training archive. 1959-1963. This archive documents the institutional training system used by the U.S. Army Intelligence School at Fort Holabird during the Cold War outlining how personnel were instructed in reconnaissance mapping foreign intelligence analysis and counterintelligence operations. The material establishes a formal curriculum designed to prepare officers for intelligence work in the context of U.S.-Soviet conflict combining doctrinal interpretation of adversary systems with technical instruction in observation terrain analysis and operational planning. It provides primary evidence of how intelligence training integrated ideological framing with practical field methods. Archive of 13 instructional documents totaling approximately 459 pages issued between 1959 and 1963 including manuals technical booklets and training schedules. Titles include 1 Soviet Intelligence Systems Nov 1962 2 Observation and Description Jan 1961 3-5 Military Map Reading booklets 1959-1961 6 Interpretation of Highways Bridges and Transportation Facilities Oct 1961 7 USAINTS Library Guide Jan 1962 8 Operational Data on South Korea I Sep 1962 9 Nuclear Warfare II Jun 1963 10 Benelux Jul 1961 11 Solution of Dispersion Problems undated and 12-13 weekly training schedules June and July 1963. The manuals include diagrams and exercises on map reading identifying "recognition distance and direction" as core elements with annotated examples of azimuth calculation and grid use. Instructional material in Observation and Description includes facial and morphological diagrams distinguishing features such as "Vertical Forehead" and "Bushy" eyebrows for identification purposes. Soviet Intelligence Systems presents ideological analysis stating that Soviet security organs are "extensions of the Party's designs" and describing intelligence as "a pervasive force which envelops every sector of society." Infrastructure manuals include photographic examples of roads and bridges for field identification while the Library Guide outlines access systems and spatial organization of intelligence resources. Weekly schedules list training components such as report writing practical exercises and seminars alongside technical instruction in photography. Produced during a period of sustained Cold War tension these materials show how the U.S. Army formalized intelligence education by combining political interpretation of adversaries with standardized technical training. The emphasis on mapping surveillance and infrastructure analysis reflects preparation for both conventional and nuclear-era operations while the inclusion of regional studies such as South Korea and Benelux indicates geographic scope within global strategic planning. Minor rust to staples light edge toning and scattered manuscript annotations; occasional corner creases and small marginal tears not affecting text; overall very good. A cohesive archive of Cold War intelligence training preserving the instructional methods and analytical frameworks used by the U.S. Army in the early 1960s. unknown
