Review: Probably the best book i have ever read by a true hero - This is not a big book at all but it has all you need to know about how the normal man gets screwed over again and again in every war. Probably the best book i have ever read by a true hero.
Review: Did old soldier suffer from writers cramp ? - I was looking forward to reading this book as I fully expected lots of interesting and relevant content from an old soldier with an illustrious career - imagine my astonishment when I discovered this to be not a book but a short essay which I read in ten minutes ! It was nice to see him point the finger at the vermin that gorge on the vast profits to be made from war but it did take him 33 years and his pension before he mentioned it to the world ! Besides which I don't think war is a racket when you are defending your homeland from murderous insurgents as Syria is having to do today. His solutions are in all honesty rather childish and will certainly never be tried on this planet.
