FletchLives Posted August 14, 2000 Share Posted August 14, 2000 I know there are a few strings where people mention thier favourite books dealing with tactical warfare. I thought it would be very helpful for me and many others to have one dealing specificaly with this subject. I already bought and read Gallagher's "Combat Leader's Field Guide" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Macs Posted August 14, 2000 Share Posted August 14, 2000 hey andreas how about that pbem. "Rommels Infantry Tactics" was recommended to me when i first started posting, and it was well worth it BM ------------------ "If you see a white plane it's American, if you see a black plane it's the RAF. If you see no plane at all it's the Luftwaffe." -German soldier, Western Front, 1944 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L.Tankersley Posted August 14, 2000 Share Posted August 14, 2000 "Rommel, you magnificent bastard, I READ YOUR BOOK!!!" I can't surf past "Patton" without bellowing this line. There was also a great MST3K episode with a movie about ... some kind of 2-person dirt-bike racing "sport," which featured a character named Rommel, and Crow and/or Tom kept spouting this line as well. ------------------ Leland J.
