Are their any good books about the initial action in Afghanistan right after 9-11? I think I read “Kill Bin Laden” forever ago, but all the never forgetting today has made me curious and I’m out of anything fresh on my Kindle.

I liked By Water Beneath the Walls: The Rise of the Navy SEALs by Benjamin H. Milligan. It's a good broad history of US special warfare in general and traces a clear path of Marine and Army screwups and failed opportunities that lead the SEALs to even exist. It stops at Vietnam, so nothing more recent then that is in the book. I learned a lot about the Navy's efforts in China during World War II. The author is a SEAL himself, so it's a big fawning over the Navy in general but I learned a bit I hadn't know before.
