Can-O-Raid posted:If he's going to recomend manga, he should at least recommend Spoiler alert: Everyone gets the literal poo poo kicked out of them by their officers, finally see an american, and then all die. Book recommendations: SOG by John Plaster. Really good book written by a former SOG guy, so there's a lot of personal recollections from the men in the unit as well as a general strategic history of the program & its accomplishments. There's a story about a NVA sentry in there that would fit perfectly in the 0_o thread. WWII stuff: Is Paris Burning The liberation of Paris as seen by the people who participated in it. Bounces around from the French Underground, DeGaulle's men, Allied command, German occupation forces, civilians, etc etc. Coherent & fun to read despite all that. The Mammoth book of Eyewitness World War 2 Exactly what it sounds like. Diaries, interviews, letters, arraigned by chronology/theatre. Not much else to say about this one, its like having everyone's grandpa in your pocket. Not spectacular but great to have when reading other WW2 books because of the way things are organized, its really easy to find first-person accounts of whatever topic you're reading about.
