    Just curious. Is war all that you read about?

    If your into studying war history, check out the history of warfare series by Casset. John Keegan does most of them. There awesome.

    WARRIOR SOUL

    I read the above. Great books, just finished the Finishing School last night. Chuck Pfarrer has some great stories and **** Couch talks about the modern SEAL training and the community. Couch also shades some light on events that happened in OIF.

    Default The Hunter, the Hammer, and Heaven

    The Hunter, the Hammer, and Heaven is very good. But alas, a Georgian (Republic of Georgia) in a US mountain infantry unit has my copy.

    Great account of Chechnya. Also Sierra Leone (The Hunter) and Bougainville (Heaven). Also check out "The Adventurer" by the same author.

    Im still a little boggled by the whole books for really cheap prices as members. Do you really get those books for waaayy less than the actual asking price?

    Is there a discount off of the normal street price on the books?
