Sobre este artículo
Osprey Pub Co, 2011. New book, 48 pages, MAA465. In the English-speaking world, it is generally unknown that a volunteer Brazilian Expeditionary Force (FEB) fought alongside the US Army in Italy from mid-1944 until the end of the war. This was in effect a light infantry division, consisting of three infantry regiments augmented with artillery and light armour. It was supported by a Brazilian Air Force contingent of a light reconnaissance squadron as well as a P-47 Thunderbolt-equipped fighter squadron. Although all weapons, uniform, kit and equipment were either American-supplied or American models, there were distinctive Brazilian adaptations to uniforms and other key pieces of kit. This is a seriously researched volume on a little-studied subject matter complete with a range of previously unpublished photographs and specially commissioned artwork plates. Contents: Introduction, Historical and political background, The pre-war Brazilian Army, Creation and organization of the FEB, Uniforms and equipment of the FEB, Army and Air Force, Combat record of the FEB in Italy, Conclusion, post-war consequences for US relations with Latin America.. Soft Cover. As New. Illus. by Bujeiro, Ramiro. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
