Download or read book Marine Corps Tank Battles in Vietnam written by Oscar E. Gilbert and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2013-02-26 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of Tanks in Hell tracks ten years of tank warfare in Vietnam, combining firsthand accounts from veterans with analysis of tactics and strategy. In 1965 the large, loud, and highly visible tanks of 3rd Platoon, B Company, 3rd Tank Battalion landed across a beach near Da Nang, drawing unwelcome attention to America’s first, almost covert, commitment of ground troops in South Vietnam. As the Marine Corps presence grew inexorably, the 1st and 3rd Tank Battalions, as well as elements of the reactivated 5th Tank Battalion, were committed to the conflict. For the United States Marine Corps, the protracted and bloody struggle was marked by controversy, but for Marine Corps tankers it was marked by bitter frustration as they saw their own high levels of command turn their backs on some of the hardest-won lessons of tank-infantry cooperation learned in the Pacific War and in Korea. Nevertheless, like good Marines, the officers and enlisted men of the tank battalions sought out the enemy in the sand dunes, jungles, mountains, paddy fields, tiny villages, and ancient cities of Vietnam. Young Marine tankers fresh out of training, and cynical veterans of the Pacific War and Korea, battled two enemies. The battle-hardened Viet Cong were masters of the art of striking hard, then slipping away to fight another day. The highly motivated troops of the North Vietnamese Army, equipped with long-range artillery and able to flee across nearby borders into sanctuaries where the Marines were forbidden to follow, engaged the Marines in brutal conventional combat. Both foes were equipped with modern anti-tank weapons, and sought out the tanks as valuable symbolic targets. It was a brutal and schizophrenic war, with no front and no rear, absolutely no respite from constant danger, against a merciless foe hidden among a helpless civilian population. Some of the duties the tankers were called upon to perform were long familiar, as they provided firepower and mobility for the suffering infantry in a never-ending succession of search and destroy operations, conducted amphibious landings, and added their heavy guns to the artillery in fire support missions. Under constant threat of ambushes and huge command-detonated mines that could obliterate both tank and crew in an instant, the tankers escorted vital supply convoys, and guarded the engineers who built and maintained the roads. In their “spare time” the tankers guarded lonely bridges and isolated outposts for weeks on end, patrolled on foot to seek out the Viet Cong, operated roadblocks and ambushes, shot up boats to interdict the enemy’s supply lines, and worked in the villages and hamlets to better the lives of the brutalized civilians. To the bitter end—despite the harsh conditions of climate and terrain, confusion, endless savage and debilitating combat, and ultimate frustration as their own nation turned against the war—the Marine tankers routinely demonstrated the versatility, dedication to duty, and matchless courage that Americans have come to expect of their Marines.

Marine Corps Tank Battles in Korea: A detailed and gripping account of the little-known Marine tank engagements during the Korean War, from the valiant defense at Pusan and the bitter battles of the Chosin Reservoir to the bloody stalemate along the Jamestown Line. Oscar E. Gilbert unfolds the unique role played by tanks in the destruction of the ill-fated Task Force Drysdale, how Marine armor was a key factor in the defense of Hagaru, and how a lone tank made it to Yudamni and then led the breakout across the high Toktong Pass. Marine Corps Tank Battles in Vietnam: In 1965 the large, loud, and highly visible tanks of 3rd Platoon, B Company, 3rd Tank Battalion landed across a beach near Da Nang, drawing unwelcome attention to America’s first, almost covert, commitment of ground troops in South Vietnam. Marine Corps tankers sought out the enemy in the sand dunes, jungles, mountains, paddy fields, tiny villages, and ancient cities of Vietnam, dealing with guerrilla ambushes from the Viet Cong and the long-range artillery capability of the North Vietnamese Army. Marine Corps Tank Battles in the Middle East: In America’s longest continual conflict, armored Marines became entangled in guerrilla war amid the broiling deserts, ancient cities, and rich farmlands of Iraq, and in the high, bleak wastes of Afghanistan. Fighting a fanatical foe who brutalized civilians, planted sophisticated roadside bombs, and seized control of entire cities, the Marine Corps tankers cleared roads, escorted convoys, conducted endless sweep operations to locate and destroy insurgent strongholds, protected voting sites for free elections, and recaptured and rebuilt urban centers, even adding a new trick to their repertoire: long-range surveillance. Tanks in Hell: On November 20, 1943, the 2nd Marine Division launched the first amphibious assault of the Pacific War, directly into the teeth of powerful Japanese defenses on Tarawa. In that blood-soaked invasion, a single company of Sherman tanks, of which only two survived, played a pivotal role in turning the tide from looming disaster to legendary victory.
Download or read book Scumbags written by John W Buttner and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2022-05-04 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scumbags is a crime thriller and drama with an underlying romantic subplot about four teenagers in a small working-class city where only the strongest, smartest, and sometimes dirtiest survive. Two of the four boys are brothers, while all four of them have suffered less-than-ideal circumstances on the home front. The four Scumbags, as they come to be called, do any and everything necessary to survive. One night, the four lifelong friends attempt to carjack a drunken stranger to help advance their small-time marijuana business. When the stranger decides to try his luck, he is accidentally shot. The boys flee in the stolen car but end up in a terrible car accident, where the driver, who happened to have planned the crime himself, ends up stuck in the wreckage. He tells the others to run and to save themselves, as the police sirens in the distance are rapidly approaching. They reluctantly do as he wishes and leave him to the police. He is sentenced to four years for aggravated assault and grand theft auto. In his absence, the remaining Scumbags take their criminal activities to the next level, swapping out their marijuana for heroin. They also involve themselves in a kidnapping and extortion ring, where they target rich and powerful men with dirty and dark secrets. They use the secrets, along with the kidnapping of their target's child or children, to extort large sums of money and make sure they stay silent. Once their fourth member is released at the age of eighteen, he is quickly thrown into the fire with both of their new business dealings. They pick a rich and powerful man for their last target. By then, they'll have earned enough money to gracefully bow out of the streets for good and turn to legitimate ways of earning income. Their target has other plans than to concede to them and has his men prepare for war, while the leader of the Scumbags unwillingly falls in love with their target's daughter, who happens to be their hostage. The two form a bond that is undeniable and causes them to question everything they know about themselves. The drama reaches its boiling point during the hostage and money exchanges when an old jailhouse beef resurfaces and causes the death toll the quickly rise. In the end, there are only two survivors. The two young lovebirds must quickly decide what they will choose to do with their suddenly at-risk lives. Do they part ways and listen to their brains, or do they run off together, following their hearts to wherever that may take them? There is a sequel to Scumbags, titled "Scumbags 2 LIAR (Loyalty Isn't Always Real)" that I have written, and it needs only to be edited for the final draft if there should be interest in one.

Download or read book 21 Days to Baghdad written by Heather Marie Stur and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2023-09-28 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An authoritative military history of the U.S. Army's 3rd Infantry Division in Operation Iraqi Freedom, describing the 2003 invasion of Iraq, the siege and fall of Baghdad, and the nation-building mission that followed. In 21 Days to Baghdad, historian Dr. Heather Stur describes the commitment of the division to Kuwait, the invasion of Iraq and the three weeks of violent desert conflicts on the way to Baghdad before the siege and battle for the city itself, and the “thunder runs” that saw its fall to U.S. forces. She then details the complex security mission that required the soldiers and their commanders to convince Iraqi citizens that the U.S. was there to help them, while at the same time they continued fighting Saddam Hussein's elite Republican Guard, paramilitary forces, and terrorists. This new history is based on exclusive, extensive interviews with General Buford “Buff” Blount, the U.S. Army two-star general who led the 3rd Infantry Division. His years of experience in the Middle East led him to question the recall of his division from Iraq at the end of 2003 and its replacement by a less experienced unit. President George W. Bush and Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld did not believe that peacekeeping and humanitarian assistance were worthwhile uses of a conventional combat force like the 3rd Infantry Division. The division had destroyed Hussein's government. Mission accomplished, or so Bush and Rumsfeld thought. 21 Days to Baghdad illustrates the long reach of the U.S. military, the limitations of nation building in the wake of war, and the tensions between policymakers in Washington, DC, and troops on the ground over the purpose and conduct of the U.S. invasion of Iraq.
Download or read book A Reckoning on the Drum written by Thomas J. Walsh MD and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2019-06-21 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most great men who change history for the better or the worst live a reasonable life span. We know how their lives turn out. There is little room for speculation about what they might have done. There are very few persons who make their mark early in their careers and then die. This leaves all of us speculating what the rest of their life might have been. General George Armstrong Custer was such a man. He was famous in his twenties. He was dead in his late thirties. What would the rest of his life been like if he had lived? Who would he have met? History continues whether anyone lives or dies. However, their living could have changed history. Who would Custer have met, and what could he have influenced? He would certainly have created changes in the military. However, before his death, he already was a national figure in the political arena. Would his career ended abruptly after the Little Big Horn battle unless he won it which he did not? Despite a poor performance, would he still be a national hero? Could he still have a great career?
