[Cordell · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a fun book, its not a masterpiece or even a well written book in some ways. But it is so interesting I had to give it 5 stars. Dozens of short stories about famous americans who served in the Military. In a way its sad to me because this book can be contrasted to current histroys famed persons who dont seem to love their county. The people in this book loved their country and served in the military and then went on to become famous, or many of them were famous befor their service and served anyway. It is a bright contrast to modern day stars who seem to love this countrys freedoms and the ability to use those freedoms but dont seem to much care for our country.
