Produktbeschreibung
More than 30 years ago, 24th Infantry Division soldiers answered the call of their Nation and went to war, first in Panama during Operation Just Cause to capture General Manuel Noriega and then in the Middle East during Operations Desert Shield/Desert Storm to liberate Kuwait from Saddam Hussein. It was the 24th IDs deep thrust into Iraq where it gained the nickname 'Point of the Spear'. The insignia of the 24th Infantry Division consists of a green taro leaf with a yellow border set on a red disk bordered in black. This insignia symbolizes one of the most famous fighting units in U.S. military history, taking on any aggressor in the steaming jungles, up rock hard mountains, through the frigid snow, on blood soaked beaches, and on burning sands. This book was written by a U.S. Army officer who served in the 'Victory Division' from July 1988 until December 1991. The international travel experiences the author had with the 24th ID set the stage for his civilian career that followed.
