A good read,

This review is from: Dial 911 Marines: Adventures of a Tank Company in Desert Shield and Desert Storm (Paperback)
I was an Army tanker during Desert Storm so when I saw this book I had to snap it up and see how the Marine tankers did things. This book is a very interesting read and provides a grunt eye view of Desert Storm from the turret of a Marine Tank. Most of the book deals with deployment and training. When the ground war finally starts you feel as if you are riding in the turret with the author. He does not bore you with tons of names or tries to show you how clever he is by using all kinds of technical jargon. The writing is concise and even if you do not have any knowledge of Marine Corps Armor Operations you can still read this book and enjoy it.
5.0 out of 5 stars
Good general account,
This review is from: Dial 911 Marines: Adventures of a Tank Company in Desert Shield and Desert Storm (Paperback)
I was in this company during the campaign.It is a good overall view of what was going on at that time. If you are interested in the overall company picture, this is the book you should read. If you are looking for individual crew accounts of action then it is not.
