I have not heard of these, however they do sound interesting. Especially the book about Gen. Patton from the point of view of his adversaries.
His books are well known in some of the other gaming communities - all of whom seem to recommend these. He used to post in the Combat Mission forums.This guy has written a fair number of books on world war 2 tanks: http://www.yeide.net/World_War_II_History/Home_Page.html. He has a book on the independent tank battalions attached to infantry divisions (as opposed to those in armored divisions) that looks pretty interesting. I have not read any of these, but they caught my attention.

Nice video. I heard no audio. Is there any?
It is annoying to have to watch it in 10 min intervals but otherwise it was the best quality I could find.
The audio portion is mp3 format (video is h264), so it's unlikely that you don't have a decoder. More likely you have the audio turned off somewhere.Nice video. I heard no audio. Is there any?
I can think of no reason Safari can't play a mp3 audio inside an mp4 video container. Search the interwebs; you will probably find a solution to your problem.I hear the audio when using Google Chrome, but not Safari, in case you are interested.
The British re-jiggered a bunch of theirs to allow driving on the left-hand side of the road.In clip 4 of 6, one can see Grant tanks moving about; their 75 mm gun is on the wrong side, however. I imagine that at some point between filming and printing, someone reversed a negative.
Or we might just need a new counter for that secret weapon...In clip 4 of 6, one can see Grant tanks moving about; their 75 mm gun is on the wrong side, however. I imagine that at some point between filming and digitising, someone reversed a negative.

Clashes and 11 Days are excellent. Both by Marshall MichelThere was a thread a while ago discussing the Air War over North Vietnam. What were some of those books?
Thud Ridge is certainly a classic and a book that I enjoyed very much. Also, Thud Pilot by Vizcarra (I think that I liked this better than Thud Ridge). If you are interested in the US Navy perspective, then Over the Beach and On Yankee Station are very good reads.There was a thread a while ago discussing the Air War over North Vietnam.

Speaking of Thuds, I would also strongly recommend 'The Hunter Killers ' by Dan Hampton. An excellent account of the first wild weasel squadrons in Vietnam. Of particular note is an excellent description of the SAM shoot-down which led to the creation of these squadrons. The author is a retired USAF F-16 weasel pilot.Thud Ridge is certainly a classic and a book that I enjoyed very much. Also, Thud Pilot by Vizcarra (I think that I liked this better than Thud Ridge).
