In the event of an attack by the Warsaw Pact and the Soviet Union, the use of nuclear weapons was part of the defence strategy of the Western alliance, NATO and the United States of America. From the early 1950s onwards, armament began, especially in the field of nuclear weapons, in order to compensate for NATO's conventional inferiority and as a deterrent. The 7th U.S. Army, stationed in the Federal Republic of Germany, received its first nuclear missile artillery as early as 1954. This was part of a strategic nuclear doctrine of massive retaliation in the event of an attack on Western Europe. At the same time, the conventional troops of the 7th U.S. Army were also reinforced. This volume shows impressive operational photographs of US Army vehicles on West German soil in the years 1950-63 a bitter time when the whole of Germany would have been destroyed in a nuclear conflagration in the event of a nuclear conflict.
