Big Guns for the Army
The ordnance department broadens gun production to scale never seen before with deliveries likely by next spring. U S forces in France will use British and French guns until new American designs arrive. Plant expansions nationwide adapt to forge work though many facilities never made forgings for guns. The department’s peace time budget is about 12 million annually but current stocks total near 1 billion with 2.5 billion more proposed. The plan highlights wartime industry genius and patriotism.
