Isbn: 9781636244754 - death before dismount: u.s. army tanks in iraq (12 Ergebnisse)

Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. An in-depth discussion of the use of tanks in five key battles in the Iraq War. During the Iraq War, the U.S. Army found itself in a very similar situation to the 1st Air Mobile Cavalry Division during the Vietnam Conflict-facing an enemy who knew the terrain and was determined to fight for their cause. The difference between the two conflicts is that American forces could not take full advantage of armor superiority in Vietnam. For the infantry to truly be effective and dominant, they need to have the backing of tanks, enabling them to continue dismounted operations overwatched by tanks. The history and battle techniques of the army's armored core have been discussed in other military conflicts in depth, but this will be the first full discussion of the role and usefulness of the tanks in Iraq, analyzing battles that were completely shaped or significantly aided due to the presence and efficiency of armor units. These units were well-trained and well-equipped and provided armored support and devastating firepower that the enemy could not easily counter. They were such a powerful force that the insurgents in Iraq had to completely change their tactics to account for the Abrams that they were facing. This work will attempt to illuminate the importance of the tanks themselves as well as the tankers who fought inside of them and show how valuable they were to the army and Operation Iraqi Freedom, 20032009. AUTHOR: Dr, Andrew Eric Wright Sr. was born in Omaha, Nebraska. He joined the US Army upon graduating from high school in 2005. He completed basic training at the Armor Training Center, Fort Knox, KY, and was awarded the MOS of 19K (M1A1 Armor Crewman). He served with the 1st and 25th Infantry Divisions, and the 1st Cavalry Division, and completed two combat tours to Iraq. He has a BA (History) from Ottawa University, MA (Ancient/Classical History with an emphasis in ancient warfare) from American Military University, and a Ph.D. from Liberty University where his research was in modern U.S. Military History with a focus on Operation Iraqi Freedom. 30 images The first full discussion of the importance of tanks in the Iraq War, and the contribution of the tank crews.
