If you are wondering, as I was, what's it like fighting in Afghanistan then I recommend reading "One Million Steps" by Bing West. I was brought to tears at the senseless loss of life and then so angry I wanted to re-enlist, grab my 9 and waste every Rag Head Taliban I could locate. I was equally angered at the total lack of leadership and direction by the entire chain of command. I'm not voting for anyone running for President who hasn't read this book for perspective on the Middle East.
I'm also on the lookout for anyone who was a member if 3/5 and buy them a beer!
Get this book in four formats at "One Million Steps: A Marine Platoon At War".
Happy Thanksgiving!
