Great book on Iraq and Afghanistan...Navy SEAL content.[views:1291][posts:11]______________________________ [Sep 9,2009 5:42pm - Hoser ""] If anyone here is interested.... "Lone Survivor" by Marcus Luttrell. True stories of Iraq and Afghanistan as seen through the eyes of a Navy SEAL. Wonderful book. |

Another great one: "The Taliban and the Crisis of Afghanistan" Details the cultural/ethnic makeup and history of Afghanistan, when and where the Taliban actually came from and their internal power structures and factions. Also examines post-2001 Taliban and the transformation they've gone through. A relatively easy read and very informative. |
| ________________________________ [Sep 9,2009 6:38pm - Doomkid ""] Also: "No True Glory" which is a VERY detailed account of the battle of Fallujah and focuses on individual soldiers' and units' actions. |
| ______________________________ [Sep 9,2009 6:41pm - Hoser ""] Good stuff, man. I'll check it all out. |
| _______________________________ [Sep 9,2009 11:44pm - Murph ""] Richard Marcinko is all I ever need. |
| _______________________________ [Sep 10,2009 9:20am - Hoser ""] I find Marcinko to be a big bag of wind. At least thats my opinion. He's the kind of guy that would say that he invented the internet. |
