A wartime feature explains the M1 A1 flame thrower and its two-man team. It describes liquid and thickened fuel capabilities, ranges of 50 to 200 feet, and combat use on Pacific fronts, noting German awareness but limited impact on enemy nerves.
The report describes flame throwers attacking a pill box after explosives fail to clear it. Soldiers advance under fire, reach a vantage point, then ignite fuel through cylinder valves. A gunner operates a trigger plate on the weapon with his left heel to unleash flames.
