A “page turner” tale of a US mechanized infantry platoon and their families stationed in West Germany at the outbreak of World War III. Gives a very gritty account of what a confrontation between NATO and Soviet Bloc forces could have been like and its effects on their families living on base as they evacuate Europe.
For me, this book pretty much hits home. I was an army brat and spent quite a bit of time in West Germany so I can connect with the story quite easily. I’d highly recommend this to fellow army brats or anyone in the who was in the US military, stationed in Europe during the late 70’s or during the 80’s.
