5.0 out of 5 stars Professional Military Reference, April 25, 2001
This review is from: Combat Leader's Field Guide: 12th Edition (Paperback)
The power this guide offers to those of us in uniform is a summary of a whole lot of infantry know-how. If you are a new lieutenant or recently promoted corporal or sergeant --this is your new fieldcraft and small-unit-leader tactical guide. If you are returning to a line unit from recruiter or drill sergeant duty, this will assist your smooth transition back into the woods. If you are a company commander, there is a good possibility that the seasoned first shirt that revised this premiere Stackpole guide--can teach you a thing or two.

If you are a non-infantry military member or a civilian with an interest, this guide will cover the basics of fighting as a small infantry unit.

5.0 out of 5 stars Combat Leaders's Field Guide 12th edition, April 11, 2000
This review is from: Combat Leader's Field Guide: 12th Edition (Paperback)
I read The Combat Leaders Field Guide. This book had great tactical and movement strageties, it tells how to accomplish goals for both leaders and the infantry. It also goes in depth on formations, and combat in diffrent terrains from urban combat to tropical rainforest. Basically this book tells you how to stay alive in an army field battle.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good compact reference, November 26, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Combat Leader's Field Guide: 12th Edition (Paperback)
Combat Leader's Field Guide is a great compact reference on platoon and squad level operations. It basicly summarizes information contained in US Army field manuals FM 7-8 and FM 21-75. This book achieves it's stated goal of being a pocket reference that you can take to the field with you to jog your memory. It fits in a BDU pocket, though the top end does stick out. National Guard and Reserve personel will probably find it useful though most active duty combat arms personel should know this stuff by heart already.
