re: Act of Valor

It is different. He is not a polished writer so the flow of the book is not what you would expect. However, the way he breaks down time in combat and time home/experiences are good reading. Especially if you have a friend or relative that has been in combat. Some of the writing is from his wife's perspective. I'm about a third of the way through and it has not been graphic thus far. Different, but a very good read. Also a very good look into the true Warrior mentality.
