_The Director_: “Lieutenant Williams, let us assume that you have sent
back the message to the commander of the 3rd platoon. What would you do
now?”
_Lieutenant Williams_: “I would go forward and join my assault
platoons.”
_The Director_: “Would you do anything about getting some of the special
weapons up to the captured position?”
_Lieutenant Williams_: “No sir, not yet. It is my understanding that the
machine gun and howitzer platoons were only detailed with Company C to
support the attack on the enemy strong point. At the conclusion of the
affair that they are to report back to the battalion commander.”
_The Director_: “You are right. If, however, Captain C decides that he
needs them he can send a runner to the battalion commander and request
that they be detailed for further duty with the company.”
