Title: Good reading, good background
Review: This book was based on an interesting premise. I also thought the background to joint military operations was well done-- as good as I've read. When he gets into the actual combat operations, it does become a bit apparent that the author was a pilot, not a ground pounder. As a retired special forces soldier, I found some of the ground operations a bit lacking, but not enough to detract from the overall book. If you want realistic ground special operations, try Bob Mayer's special forces series of books carried by Amazon. He's about as real as I've read-- which he should be considering he was also special forces.
