Fuck we needed this 20 years ago. Also a good screening for ADHD, fuck recruiters send some poor dudes who can’t focus more than 30 seconds to boot camp.

I have read it twice. Once when I was in my early twenties, and yes very entertaining. Second a few years after being in Iraq where the book was now sad. Much the same for “For whom the bell toll’s”. I recommend that as a companion book.
