Within Dragon Days are two studies: (1) how a rising superpower may be hiding its Maoist expansion behind Islamic insurgency; and (2) what America's armed forces must do to curtail either. Ostensibly, that power also provides foreign aid to the regions affected. But, the "corporations" involved are little more than extensions of its army. Thus, much of the Free World may be at risk. The U.S. military is ill-prepared for so subtle and widespread a confrontation. Instead of blatantly occupying countries or training their armies, it must start to deploy tiny teams of "foreign-aid workers in the law enforcement sector." Then, by the thousands, specially trained U.S. infantry and special-operations squads could anchor widely dispersed "Combined Action Platoons." Their mission would be to help sister squads of indigenous police and soldiers to reestablish local security. Without that local security in contested areas, there can be no viable counterinsurgency effort or operating democracy. Part Two of the book shows what participating GIs must know about criminal investigative procedure. Part Three contains the unconventional warfare (UW) "tactical techniques" (like football plays) they will need. The latter are new to the literature and not covered by any U.S. manual. They should allow tiny contingents of Americans to slip away unhurt whenever they get cut off or surrounded. Without this new capability, their only hope would be massive bombardment in, or forceful extraction from, a heavily populated area. Such things do little to win the hearts and minds of a population. This book provides the training and operations blueprint for winning an unconventionally fought world war. It also points to a hidden adversary..

Wolfgang Schneider has written the definitive account of German small-unit armor tactics. Using period training manuals, after-action reports, countless interviews with Panzer veterans, and his own experiences as an armor commander in the modern Germany Army, Schneider describes World War II Panzer tactics, coupling his narrative with scores of illustrations that highlight armor concepts. Schneider covers the major types of small-unit operational art -- offensive and defensive -- and also discusses road marches, reconnaissance, command and control, working with other arms of service, life in a tank, armor training, gunnery, and the future of armor. The book provides useful insight into armor tactics for both the layman and the armor enthusiast..

In the 100 years since The Defence of Duffers Drift was first published in Great Britain, the face of modern warfare has changed dramatically. But what have not changed very much are the concepts of small unit tactics: Ground is held, buildings are searched, and individual enemy combatants are killed or captured by men with rifles. And those men are led by NCOs and junior officers.The Defence of Duffers Drift is a fictional account of a young, inexperienced British officer, who is tasked with holding a river crossing with 50 troops against a larger enemy force. His initial failures and eventual victory serve as an entertaining and instructive vehicle to convey the principles of small unit tactics. Because it deals with principles, this definitive work has endured to this day and is still on some of the required reading lists of the U.S. Army and Marine Corps.
