At the Forward Edge of Battle is the first ever illustrated history
of the Pakistan Armoured Corps. The Pakistan Armoured Corps is
based on a unique blend of values and traditions inherited from its
predecessors, and those of the post-Independence national army. The
origins of this force can be traced back to the time when the
cavalry units of the British India Army were mechanized, in the
late 1930s. They were worked up and then deployed extensively
during the Second World War, and further moulded during the
post-independence period and two wars with India between 1948-1971.
By the 1990s, the Pakistan Armoured Corps had evolved into a modern
fighting force in thought, organization, and equipment. Based on
decades of the author's first-hand experience, extensive research
with the help of authentic sources and official documentation, this
book provides a detailed and richly illustrated description of the
build-up and expansion of the Pakistan Armoured Corps, its culture,
organisation, doctrine, equipment, bases, a myriad of events and
personalities, and combat operations that shaped it over the last
95 years. At the Forward Edge of Battle, Volume 2, is illustrated
with over 100 rare and authentic photographs, 15 colour profiles,
and a similar number of maps.
