Bombardment of, Battle of, Cherbourg

 * - I began improving the "Bombardment of Cherbourg" article where I found it a stub. I have a past personal, once professional and now hobby interest in combined arms combat. I am interested in writing from that multiple faceted perspective.
 * - My view overall is that infantry takes and holds ground, closes with and destroys the enemy. Everything else is orchestrated or manifested in varying levels of helpfulness or harm in their various aspects as they relate to the infantry mission, whether in the field or afar. I would like to see Navy, Army and Army Air Force sources written into a coherent narrative. I would like to see British and German perspectives added to U.S. sources.
 * - In reading through the artillery, naval and AAF documents, I found accounts of the investigation of "friendly fire" casualties, which were conducted after each incident. The result was more efficient use of supporting arms and fewer infantry casualties. Radio communications were improved among infantry echelons and with and among supporting arms. Liaisons were assigned to command radio centers. New tactics placed more artillerymen in the front line as spotters, bombers overflew targets nearer the ground, and vessels maneuvered through water unswept for mines. In each case, the decision was made in Allied Command for supporting arms to incur greater casualties so as to save infantry lives during supporting arms action.
 * - I would like to become a better copy editor, including images. Bombardment of Cherbourg was my first try at it. I am afraid I only knew to use 'gallery' at the time. I find it more useful to pair two related aspects of a topic section in the 'double image' now ... I would like to contribute to this larger sensibility as a collaborator with you on both Bombardment of Cherbourg and Battle of Cherbourg, as I am relatively new to the Military Project. Apart from serendipity and just dumb luck, I'm not sure how this is usually, or best done. TheVirginiaHistorian (talk) 10:11, 15 October 2012 (UTC)
