By FAR the best of the Iraq books I've read recently. They are anecdotal accounts from various military members and their times in theater and when they got home. There was a definite anti-war slant to the overall book but there were many pro-war quotes too. While I think the interviews were definitely "led" in a way, there were a variety of opinions from the various service members. Obviously they conflicted between the various people, but were presented honestly. There was also a pretty good variety of soldiers, from barely 18 to late 50's I think, some educated, some straight from high school, etc. More later.
