Recon Marine: An Account of Beruit and Grenada,
By DC Campbell (Austin, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Recon marine: An account of Beirut and Grenada (Paperback)
This is war straight from the eyes of one who's been there. A gripping account. I am a former US Marine who grew up in Grenada, so I was impressed with the book's accuracy and vivid details. It took me back to the streets I used to play on as a kid. His account of Grenadian generocity towards the American troops reminded me of people I know. What I got from the book is that no one likes war, but someone has to do it. And the Recon Marines do it best. I highly recommend this book. I am reading it a second time, and it's just as good as the first. Five stars.

Good Book on Little Known Conflicts,
By Semper Fidelis (Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Recon marine: An account of Beirut and Grenada (Paperback)
There are only a few books that accurately recount events surrounding the Marines in Beirut and Grenada. These small conflicts in the Reagan era seem distant compared to the wars we face today. Still, the book is a classic account of the challenges that Marine leaders face in combat and peacekeeping operations. Rings true.
