Title: Contrived and self serving
Product review: This presents the age old mythology of the rebel soldiers, those who refuse to accept the discipline of the unit, being the greatest combat soldiers. Of course, there is a certain anecdotal truth to this. This is shown by the very existence of the unit and the writing of the book itself that this story has a basis in truth.But it allows the author a few hundred pages to brag about how much trouble he caused dozens of officers and NCO's. These same men were American heros too, and this celebration of disrespect towards them is a but boorish. The story is related to an author but so much of it is first person accounts by the subject and he blusters and brags so much that this reader grew to dislike him. I'd have rather seen the book end with him in the stockade.
