Publisher's Synopsis
"Part of The US Army Large-Scale Combat Operations Series, The Last 100 Yards is a collection of historical case studies involving crucial close combat from the period 1917 through 1991. Today senior leaders are looking at the US Army's future and reevaluating education and training processes to prepare for a possible future war against a near-peer threat that the US Army has not seen since the Korean War. The Last 100 Yards provides large-scale combat operations lessons learned from the past to help prepare military professionals for future conflicts and, most important, war. The case studies include Korea, Rapido River, Darwin-Goose Green, Operation Spark, Bretteville l'Orgueilleuse, Bataan, the Meuse-Argonne, and the 442nd. Regimental Combat Team."--Provided by publisher.
