Review: GOOD READ FOR THE MONEY
Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 04 5, 2014
After reading the majority of the positive reviews on this book before reading it, I was surprised that so many people could rate it as high as they did.  Not a bad story, but one that was totally unrealistic both in its personal aspects and in the way the Marines were charicterized.  Not only was the personal relationship totally over the top, but the incidents themselves were hard to buy.  The most difficult aspect for me was the attitude of the Commanding Officer.  Not close to real. That in itself made the rest of the story hard for me to buy.  However, for a quick read, its fine.
