Korean War. Wisconsin was hit by a round from a 76mm NK army artillery battery. No damage or casualties. Wisconsin returned fire with a 9 gun 16 inch salvo that utterly demolished the NK Arty outfit. Witnessing this, a passing US destroyer sent a blinker signal to Wisconsin "Temper Temper..."
RSR is what inspired me as a high school kid to join the USAF. The chapters about the meteorological officer stranded in occupied Iceland made my 18 year old self pumped lol. How he provided crucial intel; how he saved the Icelandic chick AND got to bang her lmfao... to a kid that was awesome. Except life doesn't always go the way you like and I ended up a Human Resources Specialist in the Army. Life is funny.
Love this book….the false flag bombing at the Kremlin, the Soviet paratroopers landing by barge in Iceland…the destruction of the Russian bridges….the key battle of Alfeld…the naval battle in the North Atlantic…the sub attack on the Soviet backfire bases…the locating and destruction of the Soviet fuel depot…and more..it’s all there,in a rapid pulse racing,high speed, and brutality visceral account….Tom Clancy at his techno/political best…
My only complaint was that Tom misplaced one of the German Cities and failed to utilize the roads that were prepared to troop movements. But i also realized that while I was living in country the author also had to take care not to publish material that might be considered Sensitive Wartime Information. Just because the locals are aware of things does not mean that causing widespread dissemination would not cause the author problems.

@@8vantor8 Here's what my gray matter tells me. The author wanted the engagement regardless whether it made sense, so it's beyond pointless to mock the fictional Russian artillerymen or their chain of command who had no choice except to act as the author wrote the lines of that chapter. LOL!
What is really striking about RSR is how close it's evaluation of the Soviet/Russian military and doctrine to what has been observed in Ukraine. The big difference is the assumed effectiveness of the USSR military. Clancy also noted but underestimated Russian corruption.
Curious as to why so MANY people need to pile on about the soundtrack? yes its loud, but after 10 people have said so, why make the same comment again?
When New Jersey was bombarding Lebanon, a jail guard told a journalist prisoner, New Jersey no good. The reporter wondered why this guy hated New Jersey lol. The reporter didn’t know about the battleship.
Iowa reaches out 23 miles with 2000 lb warheads. Not to mention ship launched cruise missiles. The moment the russians fired their artillery the guns would have been moved. Would have been better to have used submarine launched cruise missiles carrying cluster munition to kill the "soft" targets.
What a fight this would be for real...the Iraqis tried it and lost but maybe the better trained/equipped Russians could have gotten in a few hits b4 being destroyed
Sound effects louder than the audiobook really does not work.....
😊

It was a 152mm NK Howitzer not a 76mm
@@stevesmith9151 I''ve heard/read both but, on balance, think you are correct and I was wrong.
Good video but the constant artillery sounds drown out the voice.
"Then explain to our comrades in blue that carrier aircraft cannot take Iceland away from us but their fucking marines can" Favorite line
of course it is Jarhead
Sound effects completely covers the monologue.

Try this again without all of the artillery effects over the reader
Artillery sound effects are too loud, drowns out the narrative.
WHAT?!?

I enjoy your reading, but the sound effects often drown you out, distracting from the story.

Larry Bond was co-author with Clancy on this book.

Nice try but the sound effects blocked out a whole lot of the narration. I gave up after 1 minute 41 seconds.
As a lifelong artilleryman, this scene, plus great stuff in Team Yankee, are my favs. Thank you.
Missed half of the text due to the noise of the artillery. Come on, you can do better.
Sound effects block out the audiobook. Pity.
Pretty cool, but the sound effect walks all over the narrative.
Like it does in battle. Communication gets to be a threat to discipline.
It’s was annoying
We can't hear the story because you mixed the voice too low.
I didn't watch it all its ruined
Sorry
I’ve read this book roughly 8 times. We’ll done. Fantastic battle - so was the taking of Iceland by the Soviets earlier in the book.
The attack on Iceland (or somewhere else) was planned years ahead of time at the MV Julius Fucik was constructed to look like a Lykes Lines ship
I remember well that Russian general freaking out. I certainly would seeing those 16" guns firing at me.
Today is June 15--the day the war started in Red Storm Rising!
Well you better report to your nearest national guard unit and get yourself on a plane for exercise reforger!
Nice video but as Mike K says below the constant artillery sounds overwhelm the narration and for me at least 1/2 the words are lost.
I like the one soldier pointing a pistol toward the sea. Surely, he can score the kill shot.
background noise was too loud
these guys really tried to fight a Artillery Duel with a Battleship, it should be obvious that the most they will do is scratch the paint
It's a book. Fiction.

Theres nothing more truamatising than a battleship bondbardment taskforce
nice companion from the ones made by Fixit (focuses on the air battles in RSR)
I like this. A little quiet on the narration though.
When are you going to learn how to make a video so the narration isn’t drowned out by the noise of the action? It ruins the video completely…
It's immersive. Arty be loud.
How about some videos on the West German front?
I love the Cold War era
Major issues balancing the volume of your different audio tracks rendered it unwatchable.
Why do these channels with the audio book reading of this great book insist on covering the reading with NOISE that is unnecessary?!?!?!
Sound!
What chapter is this in
Exelent book my first tom clancy read was red storm rising 🤗 great job 👍
Was there a USS Iowa in the book? i'm at chapter 39...
It's in chapter 40.
@@GreatLoner Yep, thanks. I got to that :)
Nice artillery sounds.
Sound effects overrode voice.👎

Remind me of the fire ships from avatar the last airbedner
too loud, you cant understand the narrator
