Recommended: United States and Soviet Union foreign policy in the Cold War era.

Sir! We might have discovered something huge in the Sea of Okhotsk, it might have to do with the Soviet Union! “Well what is it boy spill the beans, I need to know everything piece of information you know,” Sergeant Campbell said. “Well supposedly the Soviet Union might have a well hidden communication cable that no one has seen before! No one knew about it until now so who knows where that cable is connected to and what information is getting passed through. It could be some top secret information of an attack or even a military movement who knows! What do you think about that Sergeant?”
“Arthur, we have to find this communication cable, it is a major threat if you don’t. “The cable, between Soviet bases on the Kamchatka Peninsula and the Soviet Far Eastern coast, carried highly classified military, as well as civilian, communications” (Allen.) We have to start training the Bravo squad and send them in, including myself so I can personally clarify that the mission was a success. Who knows what else they have down there, we can only find out! So send a message to Bravo team telling them to prepare for this mission” A couple of minutes later the loud speakers turned on signaling Bravo team to report to the training center. Bravo Team consisted of Rob, Tyler, Frank, Kyle, and now Sergeant Campbell. They were known to be the best and most productive squad and they were the first ones to be called if something needed to be done quickly and efficiently.” They had a good reputation of getting the job done so they built a name for themselves and they deserved every bit of recognition possible.

    Published in 1986, Red Storm Rising is Tom Clancy’s second novel dealing with the former Soviet Union as a potential enemy. This was a time when America’s finest tank and infantry units went on exercises in Germany fully armed with the expectation that the Russians could attack them at any time. This was also a time when the Soviets did the same exercises with the same amount of live ammunition. Therefore there was reason enough to worry about potential conflicts. Deep within the ocean waters, submarines played similar cat and mouse games with other submarines and surface ships. However some of these submarines were more dangerous then a whole army because they were fully loaded with nuclear missles. These facts were well know to the American public and made Red Storm Rising all the more real when it combined land and ocean warfare in a way that captivated millions of readers.

Once they came out from JRTC, Bravo Company and Charlie Company were both given the toughest missions. Bravo Company was assigned to the most dangerous AO in the so-called triangle o...
