Download or read book A View from the Turret written by Bill Close and published by Virago Press. This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of the exploits of the 3rd Battalion Royal Tank Regiment during World War II as seen through the eyes of one of its most experienced tank commanders. Its baptism of fire came in 1940 during the heroic defence of Calais where all its tanks and vehicles were lost. In November 1940, the battalion was sent to North Africa and figured in most of the desert battles. In early 1941 the battalion was withdrawn from the line and sent to Greece where its tanks were finally neither strong enough or numerous enough to stop the onslaught on the German divisions. All its tanks and vehicles were again lost, and only some 200 officers and men of the battalion eventually landed back in Egypt, after various adventures. The battalion played a considerable part in the bloody fighting at Sidi Resegh. It took part in the famous Left Hook battle with the New Zealanders, making a considerable contribution to the success of the battle and subsequent forcing of the Gabes Gap in the Mareth line, and the entry into Tripoli. The battalion played its part in the El Alamein battle, once again receiving heavy casualties, but went on with success at Alam Halfa and Gazala and the final advance to
Book Synopsis Tank Turret Fortifications by : Neil Short
Download or read book Tank Turret Fortifications written by Neil Short and published by Crowood. This book was released on 2011-10-18 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tank Turret Fortifications traces the origins of the idea from the development of the first armoured turrets in the nineteenth century through to the present day. On the way it covers the inter-war period when the first turrets were used in this way, the Second World War, when tank turrets were used on every front in the European Theatre of Operations, and the post-war period, when tank turrets were used even more widely. The book also details the decline of the idea as countries reassessed the threats they faced and slowly dismantled all their fixed fortifications. Widely used during World War Two and since, tank turret fortifications deserve a history, and Neil Short has spent several years writing this, the first proper study.

Book Synopsis French Armoured Cruisers, 1887–1932 by : John Jordan

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Offers a fascinating look at the French Navy during the years leading up to World War I . . . an excellent addition to any naval library.” —Naval Historical Foundation Of all the threats faced by the Royal Navy during the first years of the twentieth century, the one which stood out was the risk to Britain’s sea lines of communication posed by France’s armoured cruisers. Fast, well-armed and well-protected, these ships could have evaded any attempted blockade of the French ports and, supported by a worldwide network of overseas bases, could potentially have caused havoc on the trade routes. Between 1898 and 1901 the French laid down thirteen ships, and completed nine in 1903–4 alone. This book has as its subject the French armoured cruisers built from the late 1880s until shortly before the outbreak of the Great War, beginning with the revolutionary Dupuy-de-Lôme, the world’s first modern armoured cruiser, and ending with the impressive six-funnelled Edgar Quinet and Waldeck-Rousseau. The primary focus of the book is on the technical characteristics of the ships. Detailed and labelled drawings based on the official plans are provided by John Jordan, and each individual class of ship is illustrated by photographs from the extensive personal collection of Philippe Caresse. The technical section is followed by a history in two parts, covering the Great War (1914–18) and the postwar years, during which the surviving ships saw extensive deployment as “station” cruisers overseas and as training ships. This is the most comprehensive account published in English or in French, and is destined be the standard reference for many years to come. “Brilliant, absolutely brilliant.” —War History Online

Book excerpt: Do you think Chinese tanks and models are not interesting? Wait to see this book … Until now is the most complete, detailed and exhaustive study about PLA for modelers ever done. This book is not only having historians in mind but also for modelers and readers that can be interested to know something more about the Chinese army power. After reading this book many modelers will have much more interest in building a Chinese vehicle as next model. Through its pages we will discover not only the power and main weapons of the Chinese PLA since its origins, but also the way to paint them, showing different techniques and camouflages for the Chinese vehicles. The kits which appear in this book, belong to the main Chinese brands, and makes this book the perfect guide not only for modelers and enthusiasts of Chinese tanks and its strange and exotic camouflages but also for any modelers that want to have a reference book. Modelers and historians like Adam Wilder, Kristof Pulinks, Lukasz Orczyyc-Musialek, Lester Plaskitt, Sven Frich, Zach Sex, Gordon Arthur, Lei Xu, Verlag Jochen,Chris Jerret, Oscar Ebrí, Brian Murdoch or David Bocquelet give us an idea of the quality of this publication that until now is the most complete, detailed and exhaustive study about PLA for modelers ever done.
