The complete list of all of my readings including a brief summary and if I liked it. Once I’ve finished the small write-up regarding a specific book, there will be a link within the table below.
Book | Writter | Summary | What did I think of it ? |
---|---|---|---|
The Mission, The Men, and Me | Pete Blaber | Former CAG commander weaves a story of all the lessons he learned revolving around a handful of anecdotes of his time in the Unit. | Excellent read, both fun and knowledgeable. |
The Way of The knife | Mark Mazzetti | How the CIA had to evolve from the dawn of global terrorism to the global war on terror. | Very interesting, including a lot of compelling anecdotes. |
The Only Thing Dying For | Eric Blehm | The story of the green berets tasked with infiltrating Hamid Karzaï at the beginning of the war in Afghanistan. | A lesser known bit of history that also serves as a testimony to the difficulty of conducting joint operations. |
Rougneck Nine-One | Sgt 1st class Frank Antenori and Hans Halberstadt | How ODA-391 managed to win over an entire iraki armored battalion. | A very action packed read highlighting how troop quality can be the winning factor in battle. Interesting as it marks some of the early Javelin use. |
