Description
This monograph investigates two periods of change in the role of the corps artillery. The key change agents examined are peacetime doctrinal development and combat experience. The comparison of these periods, first, during the development of AirLand Battle doctrine and, second, during World War II shows the U.S. Army's and Field Artillery's ability to change in both peace and war. Section II examines the role of the corps artillery in AirLand Battle doctrine. This section traces the evolution of operational concepts that began in 1977 and led to the adoption of the 1982 version of Field Manual 100-5, Operations.

A review of the IIId Corps'; offensive in the Battle of the Ardennes shows the growth in the effectiveness of the corps artillery. This study reveals that change can be a double-edged sword.
