"Soviet AirLand Battle Tactics"

Supposedly they say this book was used by professors in military theory and strategy courses, but god damn - the SOB who wrote this conveys the same basic concepts over and over again (like 20% of the actual book has anything to do with tactics), relies heavily on quotes from other literary works in the area (might as well just have read one of those), and uses goofy phrasing (which essentially ends up saying extremely basic shit) and complex diagrams that hardly parallel with the reading that he probably ripped off from one of the sources he constantly cites.

Ah well... it was $5 dollars and used, so I guess I wasn't too ripped off.
