Lone Survivor

Recommended Posts

That is a good book! The author is pretty local to me and I have had the pleasure of shaking his hand and saying thank you. Then a few months ago some assholes killed his dog. It was a dog given to him through the VA to help him recover from his injuries and help adjust to civilian life. He chased the suspects through a few counties in his own truck before local LE caught up to the suspects and arrested them.

after reading the book, you want to send the liberal press over there for a "reality check"



For me all the whining about the "liberal media" was really annoying. The guy is a hero, no doubt, but using the fear of excoriation by the media as the source of all the Team's problems was a cop-out. I expect professional soldiers to realize that responsibility for civilian casualties is part of their profession, not just a result of "liberal media hype".

The movie will be much better if they leave all that crap out.
