So, the complete Cap Recommended Reading List:
X Platoon and Operation Mayhem by Steve Heaney MC
Pathfinder and Maverick One by David Blakely
Apache and Hellfire by Ed Macy (Apache attack helo pilot)
The Operatives by James Rennie (14 Company undercover surveillance)
Fire Strike 7/9 by Paul Grahame (JTAC in Afghanistan)
Great list Cap, Thank you.
I had everything except the Operatives. I bought a kindle version, looking forward to reading it (sometime). Thanks for the recommendation.
I don't know whether you guys are into fiction but I'm half way thru a book called 'Clandestine' by Isaac Hooke. It's about a contract operator and ex-DEVGRU SEAL with the DIA's Defense Clandestine Service who infiltrates ISIS in Yemen and Syria. It's very very good and quite realistic.

Oh, and this thread may be of interest to some, it's about the head sculpt likenesses of some of the Joes.
