Includes the 2016 research report titled THINKING LIKE A RUSSIAN OFFICER: Basic Factors And Contemporary Thinking On The Nature Of War written by Timothy L. Thomas. Why the emphasis on Russian experience? The Caucasus Mountains, Ural Mountains and Pamir Mountains are part of Russia and consequently, the Russian Army has a long history of mountain troops, production of specialized mountain warfare gear, and mountain training centers. Even during the Cold War, when the emphasis was on high-speed maneuver war, the Soviets still maintained mountain troops in their force structure. During the Soviet-Afghan War, the mountain warfare training requirement steadily increased until, at the end, there were seven mountain warfare training centers preparing troops prior to commitment to combat.

Why buy a book you can download for free? We print the paperback book so you don't have to.

First you gotta find a good clean (legible) copy and make sure it's the latest version (not always easy). Some documents found on the web are missing some pages or the image quality is so poor, they are difficult to read. If you find a good copy, you could print it using a network printer you share with 100 other people (typically its either out of paper or toner). If it's just a 10-page document, no problem, but if it's 250-pages, you will need to punch 3 holes in all those pages and put it in a 3-ring binder. Takes at least an hour.

It's much more cost-effective to just order the bound paperback from Amazon.com

We include a Table of Contents on the back cover for quick reference. We print these paperbacks as a service so you don't have to. The books are compact, tightly-bound paperback, with large text and glossy covers. 4th Watch Publishing Co. is a SDVOSB. https: //usgovpub.com
