Whether it is an artillery battery miles away from the battlefield; a naval gunship out to sea; or a ground attack aircraft high above the fighting; such weapons systems would be m uch less effective without the services of well-trained forward observers. Each infantry division was assigned its own artillery support assets in the Regio Esercito; and although many of the artillery pieces and aircraft were outdated; they were nonetheless quite lethal under the right circumstances. Given the firepower these forward observers could bring to bear on their targets; their neutralization was a high priority to opposing commanders. Contains three metal figures. Show more
