Light fighters are the U.S. Army's answer to increased small-unit firepower without an extended logistics train. Light infantry embodies high firepower in a small infantry unity with almost no logistics capability. A light infantry unit is a combat unit supported almost entirely by other organizations. Its job is simply to fight, wile other organizations are concerned with food, ammunition, and transportation. The light infantry fights on the ground, takes the ground, and wins the battle. This manual was dedicated to light fighters and was designed for their use in training. The information in this manual was extracted from unclassified documents found at Forts Benning, Hood, Leavenworth, Lewis, and Ord. Most of the information was checked for practical value and/or supplemented in oral interviews with combat--experienced officers and NCOs at Forts Leavenworth and Ord. More
