I loved it. Real warriors battling real enemies, real sacrifice by a subset of US armed forces. Adventure that is rare in modern books. Occasional breaks to drink chai and break bread with Afghan National soldiers. Bonds between men that bridge hemispheres and cultures. Guys who fix stuff in order to survive and guys who are solid infantry elite. Team beauty. I wanted to be there. Glad I wasn't, glad they were.
