Welcome to War and Tactics!    War and Tactics Forum is currently undergoing some modifications that might disable features you are used to. This is unabvoidable as we have to update the forum engine to a new structure that is incompatible with many of the features we had used so far. The good news: WaT will be more secure and stable, and most of the features we uninstalled will be a natural part of the new structure anyway. For the rest we will be looking for solutions.

VIIth corps changed in less than a 100 days in force structure.
From the day the Go code was given the corps was enlarged and restructured with new units and new HQs.
It became part of the new coalition in the deserts of Saudia Arabia, under command of generals Norman Schwarzkopf and John Yeosock (3rd army)
