Explosive charge placement and detonation methods. Bridging techniques for crossing defensive barriers. Proper ladder usage for scaling walls and fortifications. Hand grenade employment tactics for assault operations. This manual represents a crucial development in Japanese military tactics, reflecting their evolution from WWI experiences and laying groundwork for the strategies later employed throughout the Pacific War.
Each detailed diagram shows the precise methodology Japanese soldiers were trained to use when conducting assault operations against enemy positions. For serious military historians and collectors, this is an exceptional artifact. Unlike mass-produced infantry equipment, technical operations manuals were printed in limited quantities for specialized units only. Most were destroyed during the war or in the immediate post-surrender period, making this survival truly remarkable. The book remains in impressive condition after nearly a century, with clear text and well-preserved illustrations - a genuine window into the tactical development of the Imperial Japanese military forces.
