Outside Reading #2 Matt Marquand

I also read the book One Bullet Away by Nathaniel Fick, the story about a marine officer who was deployed to Afghanistan and Iraq.  He writes about his experiances through OCS and multiple deployments.   It provides a look at the brave endeavors of our nation's military leaders and how they had the 'right stuff' to get themselves there and through their tough deployments in Iraq and Afganistan. I found the book authentic in the details, accurate in its descriptions of marine semper fi, and very well written.  One will understand Iraq and Afghanistan far better after reading this book and it would be a great book for students to read in high school or even college.
