Additional Information
"In the remote high desert of California, full-scale warfare is conducted every few weeks, using weapons from pistols to heavy artillery and airpower. The 'battles' are military exercises at the US Army National Training Center in the Mojave Desert. This is the pinnacle of the Army's training program. Here at Ft. Irwin, soldiers are trained for war in a setting as close as possible to the reality of combat; it is force-on-force training unmatched in intensity. There is vast maneuver space, live fire, and high-tech laser equipment (MILES) that shows accurately and instantaneously which soldiers and tanks are 'killed' or 'near misses.' But what makes the NTC unique is a real, live enemy - an OPFOR (opposing force) meticulously schooled in Warsaw Pact tactics and doctrine, a resourceful, confident opponent who fights to win."; top and bottom of spine plus corners of covers are rubbed and bumped; edge wear to dj including some small nicks/tears; dj is now protected by a clear non-adhesive plastic cover and is NOT price clipped
