Description:

A penetrating look inside an armored cavalry regiment -- the technology, the strategies, and the people . . . profiled by Tom Clancy. His first non-fiction book, **Submarine**, captured the reality of life aboard a nuclear warship. Now, the #1 bestselling author of **Clear and Present Danger** and **Without Remorse** portrays today's military as only army personnel can know it. With the same compelling, you-are-there immediacy of his acclaimed fiction, Tom Clancy provides detailed descriptions of tanks, helicopters, artillery, and more -- the brilliant technology behind the U. S. Army. He captures military life -- from the drama of combat to the daily routine -- with total accuracy, and reveals the roles and missions that have in recent years distinguished our fighting forces. Armored Cav includes: * Descriptions of the M1A2 Main Battle Tank, the AH-64A Apache Attack Helicopter, and more * An interview with General Frederick Franks * Strategies behind the Desert Storm account * Exclusive photograph, illustrations and diagrams ** PLUS:** From West Point cadet to Desert Storm commander . . . an interview with a combat cavalry officer on the rise. **
