What reading level is The Service of Security And Information book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
can bo secured only by having the reconnaissance made by a well-qualified professional soldier, not by a mere aeronaut. The second is gained either by passing the mes- sages down to the ground in rings which slip over the anchor- ing cables; by telegraphing them directly from the car of the balloon; by means of signal flags; or by the use of the telephone. A photographic apparatus should also! be a part of the equipment of the balloon, by means of which cor- rect representations of the topograp...hy or the enemy's posi- tions may be obtained.
The danger to be apprehended from the ftre of the enemy upon the balloon is not jrreat. Above 1,650 yards the balloon is safe from hostile fire; and, if struck by a pro- jectile at a lower distance, the descent will generally be suf- ficiently jrradual to be harmless.
BALLOON RECONNAISSANCE. 163 In a balloon reconnaissance it is, of course, impossible to observe the general principle of "seeing without being seen." Indeed, so able a military writer as Dragomiroiff condemns the use of the balloon in reconnaissance, because it betrays the presence and approximate location of the troops using it.
