Due to lack of time with Nursing School and future wife, I mean G.F. I haven't really have time for any recreational reading lately but finally have this spring break. These books have been read over the course of a year:
Combat Jump : Ed Rugguerro Is about 82d ABN DIV and it's jump into Sicily. I've just finished it and I think it's a great book and teaching material on small unit leadership as well as a good and easy read.
The March Up: by I think Ed Smith, The book chronicles the Marines March into Baghdad in 2003. It's a straight forward narrative of the authors experience with a Marine Rifle Battalion during the ground campaign, though I feel is a little conservative and biased. Which maybe due to the author being a former Marine Corps General.
Im starting on Alex Kershaw's The Bedford Boys this weekend. It will probably take time before I finish it but I'll give a review of it in a week or 2.
