MESSAGE TO GARCIA! OORAH DEVILDAWGS!

Anyways, if anybody is interested in the Korean war I highly recommend The Coldest Winter by David Halberstam.

Six Frigates by Ian Toll is a great primer on the early history of the US Navy, not only does it cover the military aspects it also covers the politics of the time.

by far.

Storm of steel and All quiet on the western front are great

Those one page paragraphs though. I tried reading it twice but couldn't continue after 50 pages.

third time's a charm, you'll not regret it.

pro tip: don't try making sense of every part of it, just move on.

Yeah, it took me two failed attempts before I passed 100 pages.

I am infinitely glad I did, holy shit that book is hilarious.
