In the intervening months, the U.S. Army 4th Battalion, 31st Infantry ('Polar Bears') employed a counterinsurgency approach that set the conditions for a landmark peace agreement that holds to this day. With a focus on counterinsurgency, this book is the first to look at the breadth of military operations in Yusifiyah, Iraq, and analyze the methods the Polar Bears employed. It is a story not of those who fought in the Triangle of Death, but of how they fought."-- $c Provided by publisher. 610 10 $a United States. $b Battalion, 4th $b Infantry, 31st. $b Battalion, 4th $x History $y Iraq War, 2003-2011. 611 27 $a Iraq War (2003-2011) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01802311 650 0 $a Iraq War, 2003-2011 $x Regimental histories $z United States. 650 0 $a Iraq War, 2003-2011 $x Campaigns $z Baghdad (Province). $z Baghdad (Province). 650 0 $a Counterinsurgency $z Baghdad (Province). $z Baghdad (Province). 650 7 $a Counterinsurgency. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00881325 650 7 $a Military campaigns. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01710190 650 7 $a Regimental histories. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01354209 651 7 $a Iraq. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205757 651 7 $a Iraq $z Baghdad (Province) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01331019 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 648 7 $a 2003-2011 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200303023443.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=404CDFBE5D1D11EA9B49BA2197128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
