“The Battle of 73 Easting.”
Guess I better go read up on that.
Hi.
Tank battle long 73 degrees east in Iraq. Brigade v. div size Republican guard.
It was a slaughter.
5.56mm
It shows up on the History Channel from time to time.
Clearly NOTHING scares this guy.
The American Hero’s Channel (formerly the Military Channel) did a full hour interview and CGI reenactment of 73 Easting. It was impressive. The interviews included McMaster’s CO at the time, don’t remember his name. Said McMaster’s tanks were in the lead entering a sand storm and encountered the Iraqi tanks. The CO said all he could hear and see was continuous cannon fire and muzzle flashes. He was pissed at McMaster for getting into without him. He eventually changed his mind when he saw what was going on... Lol
