In the recent war in Iraq, the 7th Armoured Brigade, bearers of the
Desert Rats insignia, was immediately engaged in some of the
fiercest early fighting, ultimately taking Basra for the Allies.
The war in Iraq revived public focus on the Desert Rats whose
famous battles of World War II helped turn the tide of German
dominance. After World War II the Desert Rats re-emerged as part of
the NATO forces during the Cold War years, and in other major
deployments in the 1991 Gulf War, Bosnia and Kosovo. In this latest
of his military histories, John Parker once again draws heavily on
the drama of first-hand accounts for a story that is a seminal part
of modern military history.
