Default Re: Tell people about your Military books!

Among others:

Cutthroats by Robert C Dick, a memoir on his actions as a tanker in the PTO.

Submarine, Edward L Beach

A Perfect Hell, John Nadler. The story of the First Special Services Force. A great read, and good fodder for to build a campaign on when I'm snowed in next winter.

Red Scorpion, Peter Sasgen. The story of the USS Rasher against the Japanese.

Dak To, Edward Murphy. Vietnam.

Two others that are not strictly military but still apply.

The Prince, Machaveilli

The Qabus Nama (A mirror for princes), trans. by Rueben Levy
a similar text to The Prince, written by a Persian king in the 11th century. More broadly reaching than The Prince, with less backstabbing but the same empthesis on intrige.
