Book Description
U.S. Army aviation expanded dramatically in both size and breadth of activities after its inception in 1942, but much of its post-World War II history, particularly after the establishment of the Air Force as an independent service by the national Security Act of 1947, has been relatively neglected. Despite a certain amount of jockeying for position by both services, particularly in the early years after their separation, the Army was able to carve out a clear transport and operational combat role for its own air arm. "A History of Army Aviation - 1950-1962" examines the development of the Army's air wing, especially for air support of ground troops, both in terms of organization and in relation to the ongoing friction with the Air Force. After describing the rapid expansion of purely Army air power after 1950 and the accompanying expansion of aviation training, the book delves into the reorganization of aviation activities within a Directorate of Army Aviation. It also provides a valuable account of the successful development of aircraft armament, perhaps the most significant advance of this period. In particular, intensive experimentation at the Army Aviation School led to several practical weapons systems and helped to prove that weapons could be fired from rotary aircraft. This arming of the helicopter was to have a profound effect on both Army organization and combat doctrine, culminating in official approval of the armed helicopter by the Department of the Army in 1960. "A History of Army Aviation - 1950-1962" also explores the development of new aircraft between 1955 and 1962, including the UH-1 medical evacuation, transport, and gunship helicopter and the HC-1 cargo copter. In addition, the book discusses the Berlin Crisis of 1961 as an impetus for immediate and unexpected expansion of army aviation, quickly followed by the beginnings of intervention in Vietnam by the end of 1962.

Book Description
This United States Army manual, Army Techniques Publication ATP 3-04.7 Army Aviation Maintenance October 2020, provides techniques concerning aviation maintenance operations from aviation brigade to platoon level. The primary focus of this ATP involves performing maintenance, across the aviation brigade, within an aviation maintenance company (AMC) and aviation support company (ASC). It also includes information for sustainment-enabling organizations at echelons above brigade across the Army sustainment enterprise. The principle audience for ATP 3-04.7 are commanders, maintenance leaders, officers, noncommissioned officers (NCOs), maintenance technicians, and maintenance trainers. The term 'aircraft' refers to all Army aircraft types (rotary wing [RW] aircraft, fixed-wing [FW] aircraft, and unmanned aircraft systems [UAS]); unless a specific aircraft has been identified in this publication. The terms combat aviation brigade (CAB) and AMC align with the Army's force design for Army Aviation. Terms and definitions for which this publication is the proponent publication are boldfaced in the text. For other definitions shown in the text, the term is italicized, and the number of the proponent publication follows the definition. ATP 3-04.7 applies to all Active Army, Army National Guard/Army National Guard of the United States, United States Army Reserve, civilian, and contract maintenance personnel. Commanders must consider the contents of this document and the specific circumstances in which they find themselves (national military objectives, available forces, threat capabilities, and rules of engagements) when planning maintenance operations.
