WW II Spy Novels discussion

Yours truly has much love for "Twelve O'Clock High".

Nowhere near as good, but still of interest: Command Decision

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command_...

" I take it you don't really care about the part you had in breaking one of the best men you'll ever know. Add to it, that as Air-Exec you were automatically in command the moment Colonel Davenport left...and you met that responsibility exactly as you met his need: you ran out on it. You left the station to get drunk. Gately, as far as I'm concerned, you're yellow. A traitor to yourself, to this group, to the uniform you wear. It would be the easiest course for me to transfer you out, to saddle some unsuspecting guy with a deadbeat. Maybe you think that's what you're gonna get out of this, a free ride in some combat unit. But I'm not gonna pass the buck. I'm gonna keep you right here. I hate a man like you so much that I'm gonna get your head down in the mud and tramp on it. I'm gonna make you wish you'd never been born."

"I think they call it ...'maximum effort'.."

"It's easy for a man to transfer out of a Group..a lot harder to transfer out of his duty..."

"The Great Liars" topped Amazon's email list of Military Thrillers this morning. Yes, copies can still be purchased. But hurry while supplies last!

Okey. Thanks and congratulations on your book.

But how can supplies run out of a digital, though? :)

I denounce myself for a joke as dry as a Bond martini.

Droll rake!

"Gately, as far as I'm concerned, you're yellow."

God I love that line. He says it right to his face, from about 2" away!
