Read it when I was 13 in about '84. Read it a few times since. A book that will always stick with me.

DampSquid..best Vietnam novel I've ever read is 13th Valley by John M. Del Vecchio

Wow! I completely agree, wodin. It's been 20 years since I've read it, but it was a powerful and moving experience. [&o]

Just got into WH40K and demolished in three weeks NightLords Omnibus, Ultramarines Omnibus, Blood Angels Omnibus Vol 1 and nearly finished Vol2. I have Grey Knights Omnibus, The Founding Omnibus and The Saint Omnibus to go:)

Loving it and after the last god knows how many years reading only WW1 and WW2 fiction and Non Fiction it's a refreshing change.

"Demolishing the Myth: The Tank Battle at Prokhorovka, Kursk, July 1943: An Operational Narrative" by Valeriy Zamulin.

Pretty heavy reading but an excellent book from the Soviet perspective.

Listening to the audio book version of The Rising Sun: The Decline and Fall of the Japanese Empire, 1936-1945, John Toland. It's 41 hours, but so far(3 hours in) it seems worth it.
