description	This study is a report of the ability of tank gunners to track continuously over a period of time, to evaluate the role of experience in reducing error, and to provide a basic measurement technique for future tracking studies. Experienced and novice gunners served as subjects, tracking a target tank through evasive maneuvers around a rectangular course, at various ranges. The results of the study indicate that the instrumentation and procedure designed for this study provide a satisfactory technique of measuring tracking error, that the subject's experience did not affect tracking performance in this problem, and that the measuring technique may be used to evaluate target evasive techniques as well as tracking error.
