The 101st Airborne Division's Defense of Bastogne
First Edition
Paperback. Condition: Fine. 1st edition. The 101st Airborne Division's Defense of Bastogne by Col Ralph M Mitchell. Published by Combat Studies Institute, Ft Leavenworth, KS, Sept 1986. 1st Edition. No DJ. Size 8vo (up to 9-1/2'' tall). Condition: Fine. 50 Pgs. LCCN 86-28316. This book reveals how a light infantry division, complemented by key attachments, stopped an armor-heavy German corps. Using original documents and reports, the author traces the fight at Bastogne with emphasis on the organization, movement, and employment of the 101st Airborne Division. Although a variety of factors influenced the outcome of Bastogne, the flexibility of the 101st to reconfigure for sustained operations and to defeat strong opposition forces even when surrounded shows how properly augmented light infantry can fight and win. Published by US Army Command and General Staff College, Combat Studies Institute, Ft Leavenworth, Kansas. Description text copyright 2005 BooksForComfort. Item ID 9601. book.
