About this title

Review:

Granted in which one or other image, respectively, the corresponding caption I got into a little smile. For example, when you see a legionary sit in front of a computer, which currently has probably only museum value. At this point we remember again that the book from the early nineties came from. however, the pictures are what distinguishes this book. Selected color photos as well as some black and white pictures illustrate the hard training that deals with the years changing equipment, as well as the stakes and landed the troops. The accompanying text is pleasantly short and tight is divided by many headings. This makes it possible to read the book very fast, loads through the many pictures but again and again to leaf through one. --From Media-Mania
