Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I picked up this book for my dad since he's always talking about the Green Berets and their legendary fighting. I could not put the book down myself, especially when reading about the latest Green Beret actions in Iraq and Afghanistan. These people are incredibly brave and the stories are unbelievable; war is hell and it takes people as tough as the Green Berets to make it through the battles. A great read.
