Title: Wow! This sucked!
Review: Although I truly appreciate Mr. Marcinko's patriotism and his service to our country, I have to say that this book sucked. I am in the military myself and I was very bored with the over explaination of processes, acronyms, tactics and weaponry. I was also bored with the breaks in the middle of action sequences to explain a character's history. To me, little things like that could have been done differently, it was very wordy. The most annoying thing about this book though, is the fact that Mr. Marcinko is afraid that someone will think that he's NOT a bad ass. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure he is a bad ass, but Iv'e read several non fiction military books and authors like Andy McNab, Billy Waugh and Nick Rowe tell their stories and the stories of their comrades with great humility. This could have been a really good book, but Mr. Marcinko was too focused on strutting his machismo, when he should have focused on the story itself.
Is the review positive or negative?
