Default Generation Kill - 03-10-2005, 07:29 PM

I highly recommend it to those who read and are interested in the military, war, etc. It is written by a reporter who embedded with the Marine 1st Recon Battalion in Iraq. Basically, it profiles different marines throughout the Iraqi War. Very quick and gripping read. Not political, just no non-sense.
