The author captures the ebb and flow of combat operations like only someone who has been there. It is an unflinching examination of what the Marines of RCTs 1 and 7 experienced. This story is an excellent if brutal example of urban combat. The author also takes a good hard look at the decision making process of the most senior military and civilian leaders involved. The brilliantly narrated action sequences of Marine Infantry Squads in battle again and again prove that when it comes to issues of warfare, there is nothing quite as important as boots on the ground! ( )Great book, excellent story, highly recommend This is not military memoir so we get to read an analysis depicting the main characters involved in the conflict, that's the US military commanders, the sheiks, the Hussein generals, the untrustworthy iraqui allies ... is really a great document that it also shows a few scenes of the combat action (House from Hell). It's notable that such amount of information is presented in a way that never confuses the reader. no reviews | add a review
