"Forging the Shield: The US Army in Europe, 1951-1962" is now available, as a free PDF, from the US Army Center of Military History. Lots of interesting stuff about the '50s army, maps, equipment, etc. Should be of use to Cold War gamers.

Wow, great find. Would be useful for a war in Europe caused by the Cuban Missile Crisis.

Thanks for sharing!

Downloaded.

I will peruse as time permits, but suspect this will be a great resource for my early Cold War gaming.
