4-31 Infantry in Iraq's Triangle of Death
Author: Darrell E. Fawley III
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476638314
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
The Iraqi Triangle of Death, south of Baghdad, was a raging inferno of insurgent activity in August of 2006; by November 2007, attacks had been suppressed to such an extent as to return the area to near obscurity. In the intervening months, the U.S. Army 4th Battalion, 31st Infantry ("Polar Bears") employed a counterinsurgency approach that set the conditions for a landmark peace agreement that has held to the present. With a focus on counterinsurgency, this book is the first to look at the breadth of military operations in Yusifiyah, Iraq, and to analyze the methods the Polar Bears employed. It is a story not of those who fought in the Triangle of Death, but of how they fought.

History of the 31st Canadian Infantry Battalion (1914-1919) C.E.F.
Author: Horace Cecil Singer
Publisher: Calgary : Detselig Enterprises
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 536
Book Description
For more than six long years, from late 1931 to 1938, Major Horace Cecil Singer, late of the Royal Canadian Artillery, patiently labored to write this outstanding account of the 31st Battalion's fighting record in World War One. Armed with little more than pencil and pad of paper, and assisted intermittently by two stenographers operating a manually-operated Number 5 Underwood typewriter, Major Singer travelled extensively at his own cost to flesh out the records, and to secure the information he required for the text from numerous sources in western Canada, from the Department of National Defence in Ottawa, and from other sources in London, England. Year by year, the text was slowly compiled, edited, typed -- and then read and reviewed for final edit again by A.A. Peebles, of Lethbridge, Alberta -- before being collated and re-typed as a final manuscript. The original book is reproduced in its entirety, with additions of comment, pictures, and minor alternations.
