Title: Fell short and dry
Review: That pretty much sums it up.If anybody ever tried to eat those saltine crackers from an MRE in under a minute without water then this is what this book feels like.#1 I have never met a soldier or a marine without a sense of humor, but it looks like the author is the first exception to this rule.#2 I would consider myself an idealistic "country and honor" person but Fick's nonstop textbook propaganda tirades made me roll my eyes through some chapters. His OWN opinion and perception on the events barely show sometimes and it appears that he is scared to show what he really thinks or even say a word thats inappropriate at a family dinner table. Come on, man! Haven't you trained with regular guys, and shat right next to them in the field? Loosen up! This is not a book for kindergarten. You're not in front of your chain of command or giving some motivational speech in front of your platoon.
