Artillery OP operations.

I was hoping someone could give me an jnsight into artillery OP methods, particularly during the Ardennes campaign. Information as to how OP/FOO officers were deployed, whether there were higher level units at Corps or Army level for instance etc. Any infomation would be helpful.

Here is the link. It was about the third option when I googled "Dugdale Panzer"! This is a UK company but there were links to others including in the US.

Dugdales OoB Books

Advice appreciated.
