These Bulletins on "Battle Experience" during the first year of the War are issued for the general information of officers. They are planned to promulgate reliable information concerning actual War experience. Any adverse comment made, is not intended to reflect criticism on any individual but to assist officers in appreciating the best line of action in many circumstances. It is inevitable that there would be considerable delay if complete analysis were made before issue to the Fleet. Comments that are made in these bulletins represent those expressions of opinion from responsible sources that were available at the time the particular operation under discussion was completed. Studies are continuing to the end that divergent views may be reconciled and complete analysis made. Encounters with the enemy discussed in these Bulletins, are presented in their chronological order. It will be apparent that "lessons learned" during the earlier part of the war were put to good advantage in subsequent engagements. Air combat actions, anti-submarine experiences, submarine patrol experiences, and technical gunnery experiences are covered in various Command Information Bulletins issued during the past year. These include Bulletins #15 to 21, inclusive, "Instructions for Anti--Submarine Warfare - Surface Craft - 1942," and "Characteristics of Enemy Submarines, 1943."
