Summary

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.

Well narrated but a bit one dimensional, I'd have liked more about other services; airforce and navy and their part in the conflict.

A Good Story

As a teenager of the eighties and living through the height of the Cold War this is an interesting take on the what could have passed. The media was full of grim predictions if the balloon went up, this story is interesting in that it takes you inside an American tank platoon and their experience of the Third World War. I enjoyed this book and the manner of how it was told.

What could have come to be
