The armies which began to move in September 1939 had no new weapons which had

not been possessed by the armies of 1918. They still used infiltration tactics, with

columns of tanks, strafing airplanes, and infantrymen moving in trucks, but the

proportions of these and the ways in which they cooperated with one another had been

greatly modified. Weapons for defense were also much as they had been at the end of the

previous war, but, as we shall see, they were not prepared in proper amounts nor were

they used in proper fashions. These defensive weapons included antitank guns,

antiaircraft guns with controlled fire, minefields, mobile artillery on caterpillar tracks,

trenches, and defense in depth.
