    Just wanted to recommend an unbelievable book to you all.
    I rarely read, usually about 2 books/year during winter. My wife got me LONE SURVIVOR - story of Operation Redwing/Marcus Luttrell in Afghanistan...I could not put this down. Read over 200 pages last night to finish it...just an unbelievable story!
    Most Americans have no idea what is going on each day in and outside of this country so our fat/lazy butts can play on-line all day...

    ...first heard about Marcus on an episode of Bucks of Tecomate...just a remarkable (and moving/sad/etc) story...

    GOD BLESS & THANKS TO ALL OUR TROOPS!!!

    I've never even heard of it. Maybe I'll get it.

    Bought it the day it came out, didn't stop reading until I was done. Have read through it a few more times since then.

    Amazing book.

    You will get something in your eye at least once before finishing... maybe they printed the book on onion peelings or something.
