Overview

"To our men. . . the jungle was a strange, fearsome place; moving and fighting in it were a nightmare. We were too ready to classify jungle as 'impenetratable' . . . To us it appeared only as an obstacle to movement; to the Japanese it was a welcome means of concealed maneuver and surprise . . . The Japanese reaped the deserved reward . . . we paid the penalty." -Field Marshall Slim, Victor in Burma, World War II (Concerning the dark, early days of the Burma Campaign) This book covers tactical operations in a jungle environment. Helicopter, armor, mechanized infantry, and combat support operations in a jungle environment. Navigation and tracking in a jungle environment. Communication techniques, and defense formations. Great book to gain an insight in military tactics in a jungle warfare environment.
