Book 1 of the ARMOR Series
Subgenres:

- North Africa campaigns where expectations clash with reality
Near the end of 1942, more than 100,000 Allied soldiers board transports for what they believe will be a major invasion of Europe. Instead, they land in French North Africa to fight the German Army for the first time.
In the midst of the invasion, an M4 Sherman tank rolls into combat. It is manned by a crew of five: John Austin, the commander; Anthony Russo, the driver; Charles Wade, the gunner; Amos Swanson, the loader; and Eugene Clay, the bow gunner.
Cocky and confident in Allied victory, they expect the battle for North Africa to be a cakewalk. Soon, the Germans will teach them the harsh realities of armored warfare. To survive, they'll have to show grit--and learn to work together.
