My favourite military book is my first edition signed The Phantom Major. Just finished Sniper One, what a rea. Highly recommended. It shows serious prprofessionalism of the soldiers over there at the time. A fantastic military read that shows what ther were really up against compared to what the media reported. They were in some shitty situations but their training and their ability to keep calm under pressure stood them firm. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
