I just picked up and read "Wearing the Green Beret" by Jake Olafsen.
The book is an autobiography that follows Jake Olafsen a young B.C. native who decides to go overseas and joins the Royal Marine Commando's.
For any kind of Military junkie this is the rare book written by a soldier on the ground at his rating.

Love that kind of stuff. Just starting a non-fiction book with the title: "A Man Called Intrepid", which according to the ol' father-in-law, is about basically the Canadian James Bond, during WWII. It's an old book (1976), and I'm only a few pages in, but it's pretty gripping stuff already.
