Spearheading with the Third Armored
Division was published in Germany as an internal Division
historical project in 1945 some weeks after the war ended. The
packed 55-page booklet, covering Division operations from Stolberg
to the Elbe River, was meant as a sequel to the booklet Call
Me Spearhead, which was published in 1944 by Army European
headquarters in Paris. Produced by Major Haynes Dugan and a small
Div. Headquarters team, Spearheading laid the groundwork
for the comprehensive Division history, Spearhead in the West,
that was to follow in December, 1945, with actual publishing
in January, 1946. |
Actual booklet size: 4 in. x 5 in. x 55 pages.
Booklet cover by 3AD combat-artist John Garner.
