Queens Royal Irish Hussars vs. Iraqi 52nd Division - 27 Feb 1991
Hello everyone!
Tomorrow afternoon and evening, @Elessar2590 and I will be playing a little Tactical Combat Middle East (modern expansion of PanzerBlitz by Toshach Miniatures) on a Sitrep Podcast Live Stream. In this game we’ll be pitting some of the Queen’s Royal Irish Hussars (7th Armoured Brigade, 1st UK Armoured Division, US VII Corps) against elements of Iraqi 52nd Division.
The Iraqi 52nd was a major opponent of the British in Desert Storm (British participation code-named Operation Granby), engaged by the British several times during the “Battle of Norfolk” on February 27, 1991.
This game will be part of our ongoing 30th Anniversary Commemorative content for Desert Storm, rolling out on the Sitrep Podcast through January and February.
We hope to see some of you there!
4PM ET / 9PM GMT

British forces (a mixed task force of 1st UK Armoured Division, built around Queen's Royal Irish Hussars).
Iraqi forces ... including some air defense to at least give those Tornados something to think about.
