Iron Soldiers tells the story of the U.S. Army's 1^st Armored Division, the "Iron Soldiers," who led Desert Storm's successful "Left Hook," or "Hail Mary," in a three-day battle against Iraq's elite and massively equipped Republican Guard. As seen through the eyes of the soldiers, Iron Soldiers chronicles the preparations, training exercises, flaming battlefields, and the sight of 9000 armored vehicles churning in formation to meet the enemy across desert sands.
