description: THIS BOOK WAS ON THE U.S. ARMY'S MOST PRESTIGIOUS READING LIST. Since 9/11, our deployed troops have learned many things. Though the war in Afghanistan has just ended, many of their hard-won lessons have yet to be assimilated by the Stateside bureaucracy. To help, "Militant Tricks" has recounted America's progress in Iraq and Afghanistan from the standpoint of East Asian BATTLEFIELD DECEPTION. Both countries were part of the Mongol Empire for over 200 years and thus prone to every sort of ancient Chinese illusion. "Militant Tricks" also contains the TACTICAL TECHNIQUES WITH WHICH TO COUNTER AN ISLAMIC EXTREMIST'S URBAN OFFENSIVE. While some of these nontraditional techniques were risked during the Baghdad Surge, they may soon be forgotten.
