简介:In the recent war in Iraq, the 7th Armored Brigade—bearers of the Desert Rats insignia—was engaged in some of the fiercest early fighting and ultimately took Basra for the Allies. The war in Iraq revived public focus on the Desert Rats, whose famous battles of World War II helped turn the tide of German dominance. After World War II the Desert Rats reemerged as part of the NATO forces during the Cold War years, and participated in major deployments in the 1991 Gulf War, Bosnia, and Kosovo. This gripping history draws heavily upon the drama of first-hand accounts to tell the story of a seminal brigade in military history.
