review 1: Worth reading, if only to validate the emotions and courage of the people who have seen themselves and others at their best, and at their worst, and have come forward with their tales of survival. I think the General Public May have a hard time relating, and the stories can seem shallow for such a deep subject. I am chalking that up to the fact that the author is a journalist, and in that capacity, reports the events as accurately and as impartial as possible.
review 2: The military spends a few months "breaking you down" to "build you back up" in their image and then send you off to kill and be surrounded by chaos and life and death and all the horrors of war. Then they just send you back into life with no reversal of basic training. What do they expect? I ... moresuppose it takes a certain kind of person to kill and not have it ruin them, but if this book (and so many like it) are any indication, most soldiers are not that type of creature. It's so sad what war does to people. On all sides. less
