>>>> Only $6.96 Best Buy Phantom Soldier: The Enemy's Answer to U.S. Firepower will not please those who have totally bought into the idea that wars are won and casualties limited through technology. Nor will it make very happy those who think the victor's version of history is always correct. But in 2011, all those responsible for America's security should read it. In fact, it may be the best treatise on Oriental warfare ever produced in the West. Well researched and illustrated, it sheds new light on what an Eastern infantry unit can do in combat: (1) alternate between guerrilla, mobile, and positional warfare; (2) use "ordinary forces" to engage and "extraordinary forces" to beat an opponent; and then (3) run away when fighting holds no more strategic import. While what occurred in history does not change, one's perception of it does -- as he comes to better understand his former adversary. An established authority on small- unit tactics and the Eastern thought process, this author explains in detail what really occurred at Guadalcanal, Iwo Jima, the Chosin Reservoir, Hue City, and other Vietnam battlefields. It would appear that America's former adversaries have been using strategic retreat and tactical withdrawal not only to save their own soldiers lives, but also to undermine U.S. resolve. By revealing how Asian soldiers could hold their own without any resupply, tanks, artillery, or air support, Phantom Soldier shows what U.S. infantrymen must do to survive the more lethal weaponry of the 21st century. Published just prior to 9/11, this is an exciting read that should not be missed.
