Abstract

A recent reexamination of the combat data from the WWII battle for Two Jima has yielded some revisions of the data used in Engel's paper [Opns. Ret 2,163- 171 (1954)]. However, the revised data also fit Lanchester differential and difference equations closely, as Theil's inequality coefficient shows. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
