About this listen

During the second half of the 20th century, East and West stood on the brink of war. Nowhere was this more evident than in Central Germany, where 10,000 tanks belonging to NATO stood ready to resist a ground attack spearheaded by 40,000 Warsaw Pact tanks. It was a war that never was. But what if it had? How would the opening days of World War III played out?

Team Yankee, the New York Times best-seller by Harold Coyle, presents a glimpse of what it would have been like for the soldiers who would have had to meet the relentless onslaught of Soviet and Warsaw Pact divisions. Using the geo-political and military scenarios described by General Sir John Hackett, former NORTHAG commander and author of World War Three; August 1985, Team Yankee follows the war as seen from the turret of Captain Sean Bannon's tank.

Through Bannon's eyes, and those of the men belonging to his tank heavy combat team, the listener lives through the first 14 days of World War III. The action is vivid and exciting, the tension palpable. Defeat and death are as close as victory.

Finally ! a novel that captures (modern) armoured warfare as it would have been, from the tiny details that make every Tankers day a chore, to the adrenaline filled race to engagement, so well described and captured here that it made me nostalgic for the confines of my tank, the smell of main gun, co-ax and sweat, are such a large part of my memories that this book made me want it all over again, the exhilaration of riding atop a 60-70 tonne behemoth charging forward, gun sweeping left and right looking for targets is bought to the fore with the scenarios realistically played out within. An excellent portrayal and one of the best WW3 novels I've read.

Excellent !

A work of fiction, about warfare at a junior officer level; if you have an interest in military matters, or history, then this is worth reading. The story takes you through armoured tactics, planning and the fears and elation of situations. it does not forget the personal feelings of those he commands. The weapons used with enough detail yet in simple terms. The battle field maps are simple, so you are not lost , as to why, and what is happening.

I had high hopes for this book it seemed like the kind I enjoy.
What I got was the all conquering American army verses dumb Russians and it made it kind of boring. The reading was quite monotone and I found it hard to keep paying attention to him. Lots of potential not realised.

But disappointing

Not too bad.
