This book was a play by play of the author's experience joining the military, enduring boot camp, learning of his deployment, and then withstanding the chaos of war. It is very detailed and comes across as an old friend telling the reader a story about his experience as a marine. It is all at once fascinating and horrifying, fast-paced and drawn-out. I definitely learned a ton about the life of a marine, and truly appreciated receiving a quick education on what these men and women go through for our freedom and security.
I also thought it was a novel idea to include a snippet of the history of Alexander the Great as an intro to each of his chapters.
My gratitude knows no bounds for these incredible individuals. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL YOU DO FOR US!!!
Many thanks to NetGalley and Notional Books for sharing this very important and informative memoir.
