This book describes deployment exercises by the top forces, includes the British 16 Air Assault Brigade, the U.S. 101st and 82nd Airborne Divisions, and the U.S. Marine Expeditionary Units. See full-color images of the specialized helicopters, aircraft, and weapons in action, including an account of British rapid deployment operations during a civil war in Sierra Leone in May 2000.
