About the author
The United States. War Department, a precursor to today’s Department of Defense, played a central role in the nation’s military operations during times of conflict. As an institutional author, it produced a diverse array of publications that addressed both strategic and operational challenges faced by the armed forces.
Its extensive output includes technical manuals and operational guides such as America's Munitions 1917-1918 and Engineer Port Repair Ship, as well as specialized training documents like The Homing Pigeon, Infantry Drill Regulations, United States Army, 1911 Corrected to April 15, 1917 (Changes Nos. 1 to 19), and Manual for Noncommissioned Officers and Privates of Infantry of the Army of the United States, 1917. Additional publications, including Manual for submarine mining, Motorcycle, Solo (Harley-Davidson Model WLA), and Portable Flame Thrower M2-2, underscore the War Department’s commitment to advancing military technology and tactical training.
Collectively, these works illustrate the department’s vital contributions to military preparedness and its lasting influence on the evolution of American warfare.
