John Geddes

The title and book cover screamed that this book was not worth picking up. I was incredibly glad I got past the cover, because I genuinely enjoyed it! While the storytelling wandered to and fro, I was taken in by his manner of speaking. Even through the recounting of so many grim circumstances I found myself bursting out laughing over things he said and ways he said them.

On another note, Geddes gives, what is for me, a new point of view on the debate over private military contractors in show more modern war. While his arguments are not wholly convincing, his perspectives on the benefits of pmc's shed a whole new light on the topic for me. show less

scary!
