Technology & Tactics CDs take you back to the World War by digitally reprinting the actual training manuals, technical manuals, class notes, etc. that the Doughboys would have read or been trained from. Loaded with technical specifications, drawings, and sometimes photographs, these documents give insights into the Doughboy's weaponry, equipment and tactics.
Doughboy Weapons: The beginning of this series focus on the Doughboy's personal weapons and his battlefield training: a set of 15 CDs which contains digital reprints of the very manuals that the Doughboys would have studied and been taught from! These CDs cover Small Arms Training, Rifles (1903 Springfield and 1917 Enfield), Pistols, Revolvers, Automatic Rifles (B.A.R. and Chauchat), Grenades (from the U.S., Britain, France and Germany--including some ultra-rare class notes and training schedules), Bayonets and Unarmed Combat & Physical Training. The full set will contain over 85 individual manuals and documents loaded with photographs, technical drawings and instructions. These CDs offer a fascinating look into how the Doughboy was armed and trained for combat.
