Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A Pulitzer Prize–winning reporter provides a brilliant account of the harrowing drive into Baghdad by an American armor brigade.” —Seattle Post-Intelligencer Based on reporting that was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, Thunder Run chronicles one of the boldest gambles in modern military history: the surprise assault on Baghdad by the Spartan Brigade, the Second Brigade of the Third Infantry Division (Mechanized). Three battalions and fewer than a thousand men launched a violent thrust of tanks and Bradley Fighting Vehicles into the heart of a city of five million people—and in three days of bloody combat ended the Iraqi war. More than just a rendering of a single battle, Thunder Run candidly recounts how soldiers respond under fire and stress and how human frailties are magnified in a war zone. The product of over a hundred interviews with commanders and men from the Second Brigade, it is a riveting firsthand account of how a single armored brigade was able to capture an Arab capital defended by one of the world’s largest armies. “The best account of combat since Black Hawk Down.” —Men’s Journal

Book Synopsis Light Armor in Deep Operational Maneuver: The New Excalibur? by : Alan M. Mosher
Download or read book Light Armor in Deep Operational Maneuver: The New Excalibur? written by Alan M. Mosher and published by . This book was released on 1994 with total page 73 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph discusses how the U.S. Army can successfully use light armor in deep operational maneuver at the corps level. Recent operations in the Persian Gulf during Operation Desert Storm emphasized the need for deep operations. New light armored vehicles, the creation of additional light armored units, existing regional armored threats, and the doctrinal need for high speed armored forces with deep operational capability will force the U.S. Army to examine how to successfully use light armor in deep operations. The study focuses on three areas: (1) how to organize light armored forces for deep operations, (2) the objectives of light armored forces in deep operations, and (3) the forms of maneuver used by light armored forces in deep operations. This monograph reaches three conclusions. First, the light armored force organization for deep operational maneuver should be a combined arms force similar to the Soviet cavalry mechanized group (CMG). The light armor based CMG could serve as a model for the U.S. Army's mobile strike force (MSF) concept.

Book Synopsis 3D Armored Cavalry Regiment as an Operationally Significant Force by :
Download or read book 3D Armored Cavalry Regiment as an Operationally Significant Force written by and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As of Spring 1999, the United States Army continues discussing the design of the Army After Next and the need to create an operationally significant force capable of deploying rapidly, conducting distributed operations using maneuver and firepower, facilitated by information dominance, to destroy enemy forces and to seize and retain ground. Although the creation of a Strike Force organization is being considered, an operationally significant force must be identified in the interim (year 2000-2010). This monograph examines the question: Does the 3d Armored Cavalry Regiment (ACR) possesses the characteristics required to be an operationally significant force? To answer this question this monograph applies three evaluation criteria. First, does the ACR possess the capability to conduct the variety of military actions necessary to accomplish the operational purpose of the military operation? Second, is the ACR capable of deploying quickly enough to a designated theater of operation to create conditions that support the military objective? Lastly, can the ACR logistically support itself for a designated period of time once it arrives in theater? In order evaluate the ACR's characteristics utilizing these three criteria, a near-term scenario based upon the current (1999) situation in Macedonia is created. This monograph concludes that the 3d ACR does not meet the criteria required of an operationally significant force within the context of the given scenario. Although the ACR is capable of deploying to the Macedonia Theater of Operation (MTO) in forty-one days and a logistical support structure capable of sustaining the ACR can be organized, the 3d ACR does not possess the combat and combat support capability necessary to conduct the operational-level mission.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book outlines how to reorganize the U.S. Army into a fully 2 and 3-Dimensional maneuver capable, ground force with terrain-agile, armored fighting vehicles sized to rapidly deploy by fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft to the scene of world conflicts and strike at the heart of freedom's enemies.

Book Synopsis Elite Panzer Strike Force by : Franz Kurowski
Download or read book Elite Panzer Strike Force written by Franz Kurowski and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2012-04-23 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Panzer Lehr Division, a German armoured division during World War II, was one of the most Elite units in the entire German Wehrmacht Heer. It was formed in 1943 from various units of elite training and demonstration troops stationed in Germany, to provide additional armoured strength for resisting the anticipated Allied invasion of western Europe. Its great weakness was that it concentrated the cream of Germany's tank commanders and instructors in a single unit. Due to its elite status it was lavishly equipped in comparison to the ordinary Panzer divisions, though on several occasions it fought almost to destruction, in particular during Operation Cobra. For the first time in English, this book follows the division from Normandy and the Battle of the Bulge to the end of the war, showing how Germans fought Americans at St. Lô and Bastogne. Written in Kurowski's trademark you-are-there style, this includes numerous firsthand accounts based on interviews with veterans.
Download or read book The Longest Year written by and published by Skyhorse Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2016-11-29 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A meticulous exploration of one of the most important years in American history. The D-Day invasion, launched on June 6, 1944, is widely referred to as the longest day of World War Two. Historian Victor Brooks argues that 1944 was, in effect, “the longest year” for Americans of that era, both in terms of casualties and in deciding the outcome of war itself. Brooks also argues that only the particular war events of 1944 could have produced the “reshuffling” of the cards of life that, in essence, changed the rules for most of the 140 million Americans in some fashion. Rather than focusing on military battles and strategy alone, the author chronicles the year as a microcosm of disparate military, political, and civilian events that came together to define a specific moment in time. As war was raging in Europe, Americans on the home front continued to cope (with some prospering). As US forces launched an offensive against the Japanese in the Mariana Islands and Palau, folks at home enjoyed morale-boosting movies and songs such as "To Have and Have Not" and “G.I. Jive.” And as American troops invaded the island of Leyte—launching the largest naval battle during the war—President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Thomas E. Dewey were in the home stretch leading up to the election of 1944. It has been said that the arc of history is long. Throughout American history, however, some years have been truly momentous. The Longest Year makes the case that 1944 was one such year. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade imprint, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in history--books about World War II, the Third Reich, Hitler and his henchmen, the JFK assassination, conspiracies, the American Civil War, the American Revolution, gladiators, Vikings, ancient Rome, medieval times, the old West, and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.
Book Synopsis Seek, Strike, and Destroy by : Christopher Richard Gabel
Download or read book Seek, Strike, and Destroy written by Christopher Richard Gabel and published by . This book was released on 1986 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the seventy years that have passed since the tank first appeared, antitank combat has presented one of the greatest challenges in land warfare. Dramatic improvements in tank technology and doctrine over the years have precipitated equally innovative developments in the antitank field. One cycle in this ongoing arms race occurred during the early years of World War II when the U.S. Army sought desperately to find an antidote to the vaunted German blitzkrieg. This Leavenworth Paper analyzes the origins of the tank destroyer concept, evaluates the doctrine and equipment with which tank destroyer units fought, and assesses the effectiveness of the tank destroyer in battle.
