	"Brave Little Belgium" Invasion by German forces, and fighting at Liege.

	Right of the Line: History of American Field Artillery
		The weapons used by the American artillery were the 6- and 12-pound guns, the 12-pound mountain howitzer, and the 12-pound field howitzer, the 24- and 32-pound howitzers and the 8- and 10-inch mortars.
		The common field artillery weapon in Vietnam was the 105-mit, howitzer used in World War II and Korea; however, several carriages were used--a low profile lightweight carriage for airborne units, the standard carriage used during World War II and Korea for infantry divisions, and the improved self-propelled carriage for mechanized units.
		All through the evolution of the artillery, from catapult to missile, its purpose has remained the same: to be the most responsive maneuver element of a commander, and, thereby, to assist the other arms, especially the infantry, upon the field of battle.
