What reading level is The Fighting Engineers the Minute Men of Our Industrial Army book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
While advancing at night or in a fog they are very difficult targets to hit.
The sensations of the crew in an attacking tank furnish experience unique in warfare. The interior of the traveling fort barely ac- commodates the crew of seven men. The steering-wheel is placed forward, so that the driver may look ahead through narrow slits in the armor. The two field-guns are mounted amidships. The tanks have no springs of any kind, which makes rough go- ing for the crew. Since the forward end 94 ARM...S AND THE AUTOMOBILE rakes up at an angle of thirty degrees, to en- able it to climb trenches, the tank is often pointed at an even steeper angle, when the crew must hold on by main strength. The jolting when passing over rough ground is extremely painful. It is said that if the tanks moved faster than looo yards an hour over such surfaces, the movement would be- come dangerous for the crew. Increase this motion by the violent vibration of the steel walls as they are peppered with the fire from rifles and from machine-guns, often dis- charged point-blank at the tank, and a ride in the enemy's territory becomes a strenuous experience.
