  • Armor Attacks by John F. Antal - For those of us old enough to remember, this book follows the 'choose your own adventure' format popular when we were in elementary school.  The difference is that this book teaches the school of hard knocks for action on contact with the enemy.  Very fun and eye opening for non-military personnel, a little rudimentary apparently if you do this sort of thing for a living. Reviewed by Brad Edmondson
  • Into the Storm by Tom Clancy - A great book on military leadership. Non-fiction. Reviewed by Brad Edmondson
  • Warfighting: The United States Marine Corps - An authentic American philosophy of action that will thrill the millions of fans of Sun Tzu's The Art of War and Musahi's The Book of Five Rings, this modern classic of strategy and philosophy is the quintessential guide to prevailing in every competitive situation, be it war, work, play, or daily living.
