a. The Cannan Company uses 9Hit and Hann tactics. It takes
advantage of covered routes of approach to work up to forward defiladed
positions from which it fires" until located by the enemy. Its mobility
then permits it to hastily withdraw to other positions) thoreby avoiding
inogrcounter battery fires. Its normal targets include personnel, em-
placements" enemy occupied buildings, and armored vehicles. It normally
use-direct fire but 040 use indirect fire. Ammunition should preferably
be reserved for ppofitable targets of opportunity. .
10. MID AXT/LURY. SUPPORT.;--Field artillery is the most powerful
five support clement in, tho division. To render timoly and effective

roginwritarane=r3:657 an ry ?atirOn bpadquarters, there is
an artillery liaison part7 fr= its direct eupportiarti4lery battalion*
in addLtion each artillery battery and .battalion has one or more formsrd
OF with the ,Issault olLiments* All liaison and OP details are in diroC
communication with the batteries or the battalion Fire Direction, Center.
Ar upport miy be pre-arranged or obtained on call. If any infantry
commander ne.tds support, hu can request it, through infantry channpls Or
by contact with the nearest field artillery party in his vicinity* ,Z014
requests shc.uld include the nature of the enemy target, its aostaecurate
possiblc lom.tion, its effect on the execution of the inf=try plan, and
if possible, what time recipirements are Imposed 1)37. thz local tactical
situation. It may take from three to fifteen minutes to obtain this sup-
port, dap3nding on the efficiency of commnications. The artillery com-
mander determines the priority of requests for artillery support in
accordance with the desires of the infantrit commander whom he is,Appport-
in. The anount and kind of -fire will be detarmined by the artillery.
If scr...3nint, is desired, it should be so stated so that smoke shells may
be tmployed.
ll. AIR SUPPORT.--Air support in the infantry division mast be fur-
nIshed by a higher headquarters. When air support is made available,.
one, or more air support parties (consisting of an Air Support Officer
and certain communication personnel) are ..1.ttached by higher headquarters
to the division. The air force unit which has been dasignatd to fu.nish
close support answors the calls of the air support personnel attached to
.the infantry division.
a. An Air Support Party may be attactod to a CT or r4gimenti
-.u"y rare*: to a lower unit. Requests for air supoort follow normal
chnnnels to the Air Support Party at 11.1.0.3ion Headquarers. From there
suh requr:sts go tc Air Support Control (usually located at Corps or
Lruy headquarters): which actually directs the air support missions*
?
b. Air support is .best used to ddepen the zone of aiti1lei7
fires: by Taking over these targets beyond -the range of artilloyr. It
reconnoiters distant roads and areas and executes offensive mistiona
