A propos de cet article

xxx, 452, [6] pages. Cover has slight wear and soiling. Typed letter signed by the author laid in along with some publisher's ephemera. Frontis illustration. Foreword by Maj. Gen. Ray L. Smith USMC (Ret.). Includes List of Illustrations, List of Tables, Foreword, Acknowledgments, Introduction, Notes, Glossary, Bibliography, About the Author, and Name Index. Also includes Appendix A: Casualty Comparisons, Appendix B: Enemy Entry-Level Training; and Appendix C: Advised U.S. Battledrills, as well as Notes, Glossary, Bibliography, About the Author, and Name Index. Text includes Part One: A Growing Threat at 75 Yards; Part Two: The New "Basics"; Part Three: What the "Eastern" Soldier Does; and Part Four: The Winning Edge. This book provides the missing piece to the modern-warfare puzzle. It discusses--in great detail--the individual capabilities of the foreign soldiers most likely to confront America's youth. With 1500 source notes, 100 illustrations, and 15 maps, The Tiger's Way entertains while it educates. Its foreword comes from one of the best respected, recently retired Marine infantrymen--Maj. Gen. Ray L. Smith. H. John Poole is an American military author and Marine combat veteran of Vietnam, specializing in small unit and individual tactics. His books focus on the role, training, and skills of the individual infantry soldier and Marine, and on those of the combat NCOs (non-commissioned officers). Poole has focused on terrorist and insurgent tactics, as well as the counter-insurgent tactics to defeat them. This book is not just fun reading for determined riflemen, but vital self-defense info. for all ranks and job descriptions. The Pentagon lost on the ground 40 years ago, and its squad tactics haven't changed much. Herein lie more advanced techniques for every category of short-range combat. They will permit better small-unit maneuvers (and fewer losses) for every intensity of combat. As Western ordnance turned more lethal, Eastern armies came to rely on tiny semi-autonomous elements. Most provide every rifleman with guerrilla training. Until the Pentagon follows suit, its infantry nonrates will have less field skill, initiative, and decision-making experience. In any close encounter, they will die unnecessarily and their commanders fail to meet expectations.…
