Some of you on here will undoubtedly have read this book, for those that haven't it is a classic.

The story of an escalating conflict in Europe brought about by the Warsaw Pact's desire for Gulf Region oil. In order that the Soviets can "walk into" the Gulf region they find it first necessary to split NATO politically and keep them engaged Militarily.

Perhaps Clancy's best work? Compelling? Exciting?

You decide.

Not only is aerial warfare covered but also land and sea warfare. A complete World War Three.

Probably Tom Clancy's best book and one I read over... did so numerous times at the end of the cold war...

Love the "Attitude Check" in the ATC at Keflavic!!
