Hi ArmyLady. The Forgotten Soldier is an excellent book. Another excellent book is "Chicken Hawk". It's about a Vietnam War helicopter pilot flying UH 1 Iroquois. Well worth the read.
Thx! I started reading military bios and history in about 8th grade. One of the first was Rommel.
A fascinating bio study is General Theodore Roosevelt Jr. He was legend.

OH YES! One of the things I liked about the show Blue Bloods was his picture on the wall of the Police Commissioner . . . Tom Selleck.
