support the landing of the IX A:rmy Corps on the K!JMON-DAKE
Beaches in accord with the plans of CTF 48, and will thereafter ....
continue to su)port the further operations of the Landing Force
as required.. Y
4. Bombardment Principles
{a) IDnphasis should oe given to all bombardment principles and
doctrine contained in references.
(b) Bombardment problems can be expected to be an intensifica-
'
tion of those experienced in recent operations. Gun _positions,
pillbpxes and emplacements wil1 be dug in, and, in most cases,
provided with overhead cover. All will be difficult to locate
and will require painstaking .. work by air spotters. Carefully
aimed, precise fire, using one or tvro guns will be required to
secure the necessary destruction. Large calibers.. and bombing
must be employed to strip camouflage, followed in quick success-
ion by close spott".ng and fire for destruction.
(C) The nuinerous possible landing beaches make it difficult
for the enemy. to concentrate defenses at all beaches. A more
probable defense tactic will be the establishment of relatively
light delayins forces in fixed defensive positions near all
'
beaches, plus mobile reserves .stationed for qui-ck deployment. e.
Bombardn:ents prior to XRAY Day should therefore avoid indica-
ting our beach selections any more than is necessary in accom-
plishing the necessary degree of preparation. Bo.11bardment plans
should emphasize the interdiction of the measer road and rail-
road net to prevent the movement of reserves,

6. Special Instructions
(a) Fire Support Group Commanders may further sub-divide Fire
Support Groups into Fire Support Units as by require-
ments within individpal sectors of responsibility. For this
purpose, the initial assignments of specific ships to Groups
and later changes ,;ill be pr001ulgated by the Attack Force Com-
mancier by Air Eailgrams or by despatch. \ihen sub--clirlding Fire
Support Groups, ,and when preparing schedules, Attack Force Ccm-
Jilanders should apply the following
(1) Unless it is necessary to do othe:rw,ise, keep intact the
A<lliinistrc.tive Units as far as possible.
(2) Distribute Flag Officers among units as equally as
possible.
(3) Place ships which will operate in the same Fire Support
'
Sector in the S<1ille Fire Support Unit.
(4) After the l<:.ncling, retain the identity F:l,re Sup-
port Unit ..n<i utilize to a mMdmuLl the Fire Stlpt:X>rt Unit
Commanders, particularly in th" deliver:,- of .fl(i)EIP support.
(b) ,ihen ships oi two or more fire support .units are opera tin&
together in tho same fire support sector, tho sel'lior officer
present in tho fire support units in the immediate. area concerned
will regulate 2.nd coordinate their movemenj:.s.
(c) All combatant ships of destroyer or larger siz(Lmaintain
appropriate speeds of at least

. ', " ., ' ', ' . .
{d) Large gunfire ships, except when op'rating inside the screen
around the entire area of their operations, will at all times
be provided vti t:1 a Imitable screen o:f' vessels wh:i.ch are not
themselves delivering !ire against shore positions.
(e) Schedules of fire for su.pport of landings. should stress a
progressive movement of !ires inland and to the flanks of the
landing "6eaches as the assault waves land. Such fires sholld
be scheduled for at least !our ho\U's a:f'ter the landing, -subject
to modification by Shore Fire Control Parties after they ar-e- -
;in position to control fires, Under no circumstances should
scheduled fires cease during the critical period between the
landing of the first wave and the time when Shore Fire Control
Parties reach positions from which they_can operations.
(f) In order to cns\U'e the mrodr.1um flexibility of Naval Gunfire
-&rP.[JUrt afte'r-1tr..AY Ilay, ships for call fires, and
the necessary spotting frcqueoccs, will nomally be assigned to
the Regimental Naval Gunfire Liaison Officers, uho will then
be responsible to tho RCT Conunc.nder, for allocutior; of !ires to
battalions as :nay best meet the tactical requirements within
his rogim...:.'1t.
{g) Support Cl'aft available for support tasks hav.:; been listed
in tho Orginization of the Fire Support Groups. Other
craft havG been tcntativeiy allocate .. to the vnrious screen A
and radar picket groups. The i:J.llocution of craft to the various
tasks is ut tho discretion of-the Attack Force Commanders and
be carefully detailed in plans. In this corm_e_g_t,_iop,
attention is c'tiroctoci to tho requirements. for picket su)ports
and screening ils set forth in Appendix (I) to Annex (K), Screen-
ing Plan. The usG oi' support craft for gunfire tusks should be
exploited wherever possible. Attention is directed to the

assigned-to two functions-where geographic separation permits.
(o) Destroying enemy guns, torpedo tubes, rocket projectors,
and motor 'torpedo and suicide boats is a most important duty
for all fire support ships. Experience in recent operations
indicates tho probability of encountering large numbers of
11
suicidell boats and midget submarines. These craft are gen- .
erally_well hidden in camouflaged caves at the foot of cliffs
and .in riVer c.nd canal banks, In many instances, such boats
and craft have been kept in villages and other locations at
c risiderable stance. from water - from which they are carried
by uck the laucnhing site. Careful, continuous observa-
tion, v1sual photographic, must be maintained of all likely
sites as these craft must be destroyed before being given a
chance to dll1llago our ships.
(p) Certain ships must always be availnble in each fire support
group for instant counter--battery duty against shore batteries
which fire at OUr ships or landing craft. Such counter-battery
ships should not be assigned distant missions which,may inter-
fere. with their counter-battery functions. This particularly
applies during the support of landings, as this time is usually
fayorable for cnauy guns to open fire. iihen the exact location-
ol an .active enemy gun cannot be determined, tho general vicin-
ity shou;ta imtJ1odiatoly be covered by urea firo. This type of
fire should be by definite pkns in
wtJj_ch areas are to the various :t'ire
support ships available. It must'be emphasized: i:rt a.ll plans
that the primary requirauorit for e:t'foctive cotilite:l'4>attory is
in returning -fire.

Air Spot will be available, both .from vo-vos float planes from
battleships and cruisers, and from VOF planes based on spotting CVEs.
When air spot is used. to supplement the observation of a shore fire
control party, communication will be via HF spotting frequencies as
per paragraph 2 above. In .. all . such cases, the Bl!lail amount of fre-
quency separation in the .overall frequency plan makes it necessary .
that the plane, firirtg ahips and shore fire control party use every
possible means to set transmitters exactly on the assigned spotting
frequency. As the firing ship has the .best facilities to acccmplish
this, it Lllist coach the shorefhc control party accordingly. flhen
establishing contact with planes, ships will tune their receivers
only as necessary to bring in the plane's transmitter, If the plane
is only Slighly off frequency, communications may be maintained and
coordinated by the plane tuning its receiver to receive. the ship and
SFCP and the ship maintaining a split phone watch to rccei ve both SFCP
and plane, If the planets transmitter is more than 2 .kcs off fre.
it Shall not be used for spotting, but will be directed by the
ship to report to the appropriate control officer on the VHF control
net. If thG plane cannot correct its, frequency while :j..n :fl.ig,b.t, it
will then either be assigned ar1,0ther mission, using .. )its secondary HF
frequency, or directed to return to base, ./
