audiobook The Commuter Nation: Perspectives on Puerto Rican Migration by From Brand: Univ Puerto Rico Pr in History

Description

Osprey's study of the ground forces of the Cold War (1946-1991). While much has been published on the armed forces of the USSR during the 1980s; surprisingly little is available on the forces supplied by the other member nations of the Warsaw Pact. Rivalling the size of the United States Army; the combined ground forces of the six non-Soviet Warsaw Pact countries totalled over 775;000 active troops; with almost two million ground forces reserves. This book examines the history; organization and uniforms of the often overlooked DDR; Czechoslovak; Polish; Bulgarian; Hungarian and Romanian forces at the end of the Cold War.
