Red Storm Rising (Volume # 1)

Clancy's depiction of war tactics is immersive, but I wonder if some moments were simplified for narrative flow. How do others feel about the realism of these military scenes?

The book captures the brinkmanship and paranoia of the era so vividly. I'm curious whether the author drew from specific historical events or purely imagined scenarios.

The rapid escalation kept me on the edge of my seat, but I wondered if the pacing was designed to mirror the chaos of war or if it was a writing choice to keep readers hooked.
