War Stories of the Tankers: American Armored Combat, 1918 to Today
These are the harrowing firsthand accounts of armored combat, from the days of the century’s first tanks to the latest encounter on the streets of Baghdad: the still-vivid impressions of those who fought in no-man’s land during World War I; the stories of green American tankers taking on German Tigers or fighting through a sea of Red Chinese soldiers in Korea. From the American boys who faced the Viet Cong to the soldiers fighting in Iraq, these are the heroes of our time, taking that rare moment to tell us what it is like to confront the enemy in tank warfare.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
