This is a translation of a captured German field manual on the tactics of the motorized infantry regiment and battalion when used as part of the German armored division. In accordance with the principle that "the chief task of motorized infantry is cooperation with tanks," the aim of the German 'omminiand has been to weld their armored division into a honlogeneous tnit, and' to mold the tactics of this division around the operation of the tank elements. These German instructions assume that the motorized infantry is equipped with support guns on selfpropelled mnouits, this equipmlent being adopted by the Germans as quickly as it can be designed and manufactured.

This document supplenments The Germnan Armored Division, which contains the Gerilan instructions for the arnmored division.
