Very surprised not like any Tom Clancy I've read before. Having served 30 years in Armor or Armored Cav units it was like reading a weapons systems operating manual. Not the Cavalry story I expected. Weapon nomenclature was not what I wanted to see.

Actually, I couldn't finish this book. It is too uninteresting. It is full of information about bullets and weapons. My brother read it. He thinks it was written for soldiers.

Although the discussion of the equipment is comprehensive, the tactical discussion is very weak, and the maps of the Iraqi conflict utilized when talking to General Franks are childish at best. Clancy's discussion of the equipment seems like PR, there has to be some problems with equipment or tactics, but no discussion of it. And I guess to be honest, I don't care that he owns an M4 sherman and an HMMWV and that he "loves them", not very technical. I love Clancy's fictional writings, but I doubt I'll buy any of his other "factual" books.
