Bruce Sandmeyer,
Excellent What IfI'm a retired Army officer and veteran of the Gulf War and OIF, and I am a huge fan of alternative military history。 In The Gulf War we always asked what if the Iraqi's had not stopped in Kuwait but had continued into Saudi Arabia。 This book gives a great "what if" scenario。 The author also accurately captured the realities of fighting and surviving in the harsh desert environment。 One point the author mentioned was the change in temperatures in the desert between day and night。 Excellent What IfI'm a retired Army officer and veteran of the Gulf War and OIF, and I am a huge fan of alternative military history。 In The Gulf War we always asked what if the Iraqi's had not stopped in Kuwait but had continued into Saudi Arabia。 This book gives a great "what if" scenario。 The author also accurately captured the realities of fighting and surviving in the harsh desert environment。 One point the author mentioned was the change in temperatures in the desert between day and night。 He actually wrote the exact words I tell folks when describing Saudi Arabia that it was 120 in the daytime but it would drop to 80 at night in minutes as soon as the sun went down and you'd feel cold。 A very good book that I highly recommend。 I'm looking for to the next novel。 。。。more
