A must read...especially for the Squad. People that have no historical context say stoopid stuff.

And the 2 best books ever written about WWII rather easily...

Conrad was a first class SOB

Came across great grandpappy's ceremonial M1861 officer's sabre while rooting through storage last week looking for rafting equipment for our upcoming trip to Yosemite

You like to call your collected works "canon." It's something you like to do.

Based on your list of recent reads I have nothing to think you will be interested in this, but I read it about a year ago and enjoyed it.

I heard that the best of the collection sold out and was out of print.

True for the hardcovers, but there's always the cherished eBook.

You can’t ask a vinyl guy to buy an eBook?!!
