Aerial Interdiction in Three Wars, by Dr. Eduard Mark
Destroying an enemy transportation network can cripple or fatally weaken his war effort - this truism of modern air force doctrine dates back to the second world war and has been demonstrated recently (and most decisively) in the Persian Gulf. This volume focuses on the classic interdiction campaigns of the pre-Gulf War era, when American Airmen sought to save lives and shorten the hostilities by bombing rail lines, bridges, and road networks behind enemy lines.
