Feuertaufe Leopard 2
The Leopard 2 MBT's Baptism on Fire on Army Exercises 1984-86
The introduction of the Leopard 2 main battle tank from 1980 into the German Panzertruppe was a highly demanding task. This publication describes the teething problems and shows the early series production Leopard 2A0 and Leopard 2A1 tanks' baptism of fire in the three army manoeuvres conducted in 1984, 1985 and 1986, when they were used on exercise for the very first time. Also shown is the other vehicle equipment of the participating Bundeswehr and allied forces.

Be assured, though I may not always have the lowest price, you will not get any cheap bookclub editions from me on ebay. I've been selling books for many many years and I can spot cheap bookclubs a mile away. Hand me a book and I'll tell you straight off if it's a bookclub edition. Sometimes it can be hard for most booksellers to know if it's a bookclub, like university press books. They don't normally put the price on the jacket for the publisher's edition, but most of them do use full or partial cloth binding, whereas the bookclub edition will be simply cheap board covers. Though let's face it, most of the publisher's editions these days aren't all that great in quality either, the bookclubs are even worse!
