During the second half of the 20th century, East and West stood on the brink of war. Nowhere was this more evident than in Central Germany, where 10,000 tanks belonging to NATO stood ready to resist a ground attack spearheaded by 40,000 Warsaw Pact tanks. It was a war that never was. But what if it had? How would the opening days of World War III played out? Team Yankee , the New York Times best-seller by Harold Coyle, presents a glimpse of what it would have been like for the soldiers who would have had to meet the relentless onslaught of Soviet and Warsaw Pact divisions. Using the geo-political and military scenarios described by General Sir John Hackett, former NORTHAG commander and author of World War Three; August 1985 , Team Yankee follows the war as seen from the turret of Captain Sean Bannon's tank. Through Bannon's eyes, and those of the men belonging to his tank heavy combat team, the listener lives through the first 14 days of World War III. The action is vivid and exciting, the tension palpable. Defeat and death are as close as victory.

One of the first books I read about modern war, in 1988. Yup, read it when I was a pool lifeguard in Eatonton NJ. Battle sequences were fast paced, didn't really get bogged down like some war books can. Granted, this was 1988 so I don't know if the equipment would be considered 'outdated' by today's standards. However, it did give good descriptions of the M1A1 battle tank.
