If anyone wants to read an excellent book about the war in
Afghanistan I recommend "Victory Point: Operations Red WIngs and
Whalers- The Marine Corps' Battle For Freedom In Afghanistan" by Ed
Darack. It's a well written account that covers two operations and
gives great insight not only into the world of our military but also
into a way of life in a world so very, very different from ours.
And, fwiw, our nephew was one of the radio operators that served in
the second operation.
