In this book the Army Corps of Engineers' support of the war in the
European and North African theaters is recounted in detail. This
narrative makes clear the indispensable role of the military
engineer at the fighting front and his part in maintaining Allied
armies in the field against European Axis powers. American
engineers carried the fight to enemy shores by their mastery of
amphibious warfare. In building and repairing road and rail nets
for the fighting forces, they wrote their own record of
achievement. In supporting combat and logistical forces in distant
lands, these technicians of war transferred to active theaters many
of the construction and administrative functions of the peacetime
Corps, so heavily committed to public works at home. The authors of
this volume have reduced a highly complex story to a comprehensive
yet concise account of American military engineers in the two
theaters of operations where the declared main enemy of war was
brought to unconditional surrender.
