Book Description
“A Pulitzer Prize–winning reporter provides a brilliant account of the harrowing drive into Baghdad by an American armor brigade.” —Seattle Post-Intelligencer Based on reporting that was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize, Thunder Run chronicles one of the boldest gambles in modern military history: the surprise assault on Baghdad by the Spartan Brigade, the Second Brigade of the Third Infantry Division (Mechanized). Three battalions and fewer than a thousand men launched a violent thrust of tanks and Bradley Fighting Vehicles into the heart of a city of five million people—and in three days of bloody combat ended the Iraqi war. More than just a rendering of a single battle, Thunder Run candidly recounts how soldiers respond under fire and stress and how human frailties are magnified in a war zone. The product of over a hundred interviews with commanders and men from the Second Brigade, it is a riveting firsthand account of how a single armored brigade was able to capture an Arab capital defended by one of the world’s largest armies. “The best account of combat since Black Hawk Down.” —Men’s Journal

Book Description
This monograph discusses how the U.S. Army can successfully use light armor in deep operational maneuver at the corps level. Recent operations in the Persian Gulf during Operation Desert Storm emphasized the need for deep operations. New light armored vehicles, the creation of additional light armored units, existing regional armored threats, and the doctrinal need for high speed armored forces with deep operational capability will force the U.S. Army to examine how to successfully use light armor in deep operations. The study focuses on three areas: (1) how to organize light armored forces for deep operations, (2) the objectives of light armored forces in deep operations, and (3) the forms of maneuver used by light armored forces in deep operations. This monograph reaches three conclusions. First, the light armored force organization for deep operational maneuver should be a combined arms force similar to the Soviet cavalry mechanized group (CMG). The light armor based CMG could serve as a model for the U.S. Army's mobile strike force (MSF) concept.

Book Description
As of Spring 1999, the United States Army continues discussing the design of the Army After Next and the need to create an operationally significant force capable of deploying rapidly, conducting distributed operations using maneuver and firepower, facilitated by information dominance, to destroy enemy forces and to seize and retain ground. Although the creation of a Strike Force organization is being considered, an operationally significant force must be identified in the interim (year 2000-2010). This monograph examines the question: Does the 3d Armored Cavalry Regiment (ACR) possesses the characteristics required to be an operationally significant force? To answer this question this monograph applies three evaluation criteria. First, does the ACR possess the capability to conduct the variety of military actions necessary to accomplish the operational purpose of the military operation? Second, is the ACR capable of deploying quickly enough to a designated theater of operation to create conditions that support the military objective? Lastly, can the ACR logistically support itself for a designated period of time once it arrives in theater? In order evaluate the ACR's characteristics utilizing these three criteria, a near-term scenario based upon the current (1999) situation in Macedonia is created. This monograph concludes that the 3d ACR does not meet the criteria required of an operationally significant force within the context of the given scenario. Although the ACR is capable of deploying to the Macedonia Theater of Operation (MTO) in forty-one days and a logistical support structure capable of sustaining the ACR can be organized, the 3d ACR does not possess the combat and combat support capability necessary to conduct the operational-level mission.
