Anotácia knihy

During the Iraq War, Captain Jason Conroy commanded Charlie Company, an infantry-support tank unit equipped with mammoth M1A1 Abrams tanks. They were literally at the tip of the US Army's spear and one of the first Allied elements into Baghdad. Veteran journalist Ron Martz was embedded in Charlie Company. Together, from the unique perspective of an armoured unit that was in almost continuous combat for four straight weeks, Conroy and Martz tell the unvarnished story of what went right and what went deadly wrong in Iraq: supply shortages, intelligence failures, miserable weather conditions, tactics for which the soldiers were never trained. This book features: Controversial: a no-holds barred account of the taking of Baghdad, a place where US soldiers were told they would never have to fight; Tactical: a first-hand account of 21st century desert and urban warfare, and how we should prepare if required to fight such wars; and essential reading for tank enthusiasts and armoured warfare historians.
