db_zero Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 This has probably been posted before, but if not here is a link to some downloadable US Army field manuals. Not sure about how relevant to CM gameplay. http://www.ibiblio.org/hyperwar/USA/ref/FM/ Here is one on German Army. http://www.ibiblio.org/hyperwar/Germany/HB/index.html Another place for interesting stuff. http://www.lonesentry.com/ Sure the British had one. Don't think the Russians had one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
