I've read a lot of books like Ambrose's "Band of Brothers" or "With the Old Breed : At Peleliu and Okinawa" By Sledge. etc.....

I grabbed "Jarhead" when it came out,  it sucked. didn't bother when the movie came out.

Can anyone recommend any good books about the current war?

Thanks

Yeah, Thunder Run was probably one of my favorites, I also like :

Boots On The Ground

Generation Kill

Not A Good Day To Die (Afghanistan)

The markets beginning to get flooded with these books so it's good to do a little research before you buy one.


ETA, none of these books come close to Band Of Brothers.
