East German TO&Es 1980-1989 V1.3
East German TO&Es 1980-1989 v1.3 BATTLEGROUP CWEG-01 (a) The East German Army (NVA) had x2 Panzer Divisions (7th & Panzer Division 1980s (a) 9th) and x4 Panzer-Grenadier Divisions (1st, 4th, 8th & 11th). These were grouped into two higher administrative formations – the BATTLEGROUPS 3rd and 5th Military Districts. Each Military District had x1 Panzer Division and x2 Panzer-Grenadier Divisions, plus Army Support BG CWEG-03 Assets. Some sources record these formations as ‘Armies’, but in x3 Panzer Regiment reality the Military Districts were administrative formations only. In war the six East German divisions would have come under the BG CWEG-04 command of five of the six Soviet Armies in Germany (28th, 2nd Guards, 8th Guards, 20th Guards & 3rd Shock Armies, but not 1st x1 Panzer-Grenadier Regiment (Tracked) Guards Army), while the East German Army support assets would form the Army Troops of 2nd Guards Army and 8th Guards Army. BG CWEG-08 Consequently, East German divisions could have Soviet Army x1 Panzer-Reconnaissance Battalion Troops in support and vice versa. The East Germans were widely regarded as the most reliable of all Warpac armies (the expression ‘There’s none so fanatical as a convert’ springs to mind) and in x1 Pioneer Battalion (b) some cases were regarded as more combat-efficient than many Soviet units in Germany. FIRE SUPPORT ELEMENTS (b) The Divisional Pioneer Battalion had a single Pioneer Company that could be considered an ME for game purposes (ME CWEG- FSE CWEG-05 14), while the rest of the battalion consisted of road-building, Divisional Artillery Regiment bridging, amphibian, position preparation and demolition equipment, which is unlikely to feature very heavily in a game. -

Reflections on Pearl Harbor Anniversaries Past Roger Dingman University of Southern California
Reflections on Pearl Harbor Anniversaries Past Roger Dingman University of Southern California By any measure, the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor was one of the decisive events of the twentieth century. For Americans, it was the greatest military disaster in memory-one which set them on the road to becoming the world's greatest military power. For Japanese, the attack was a momentary triumph that marked the beginning of their nation's painful and protracted transition from empire to economic colossus. Thus it is entirely appropriate, more than fifty years after the Pearl Harbor attack, to pause and consider the meaning of that event. One useful way of doing so is to look back on Pearl Harbor anniversaries past. For in public life, no less than in private, anniversaries can tell us where we are; prompt reflections on where we have been; and make us think about where we may be going. Indeed, because they are occa- sions that demand decisions by government officials and media man- agers and prompt responses by ordinary citizens about the relationship between past and present, anniversaries provide valuable insights into the forces that have shaped Japanese-American relations since 1941. On the first Pearl Harbor anniversary in December 1942, Japanese and Americans looked back on the attack in very different ways. In Tokyo, Professor Kamikawa Hikomatsu, one of Japan's most distin- guished historians of international affairs, published a newspaper ar- ticle that defended the attack as a legally and morally justifiable act of self-defense. Surrounded by enemies that exerted unrelenting mili- tary and economic pressure on it, and confronted by an America that refused accommodation through negotiation, Japan had had no choice but to strike.' On Guadalcanal, where they were locked in their first protracted battle against Japanese troops, Americans mounted a "hate shoot" against them to memorialize those who had died at Pearl Har- bor a year earlier.2 In Honolulu, the Advertiser editorial writer urged The ]journal of American-East Asian Relations, Vol. -

Grau Foreign Military Studies Oce ABSTRACT In the history of warfare, ground and naval forces frequently have to cooperate. There are usually problems putting these two forces together since their missions, equipment, training, communications and mutual unfamiliarity get in the way. These problems are common during transport of ground force equipment and personnel aboard naval vessels, exacer- bated during amphibious landings and assaults and very di- cult when operating together along major rivers. This article analyzes the Soviet history of defensive river otilla combat during the rst period of the Great Patriotic War (World War II against Germany).
