For any kind of Military junkie this is the rare book written by a soldier on the ground at his rating.

I was planning to pick up a copy of "The Patrol" by Ryan Flavelle.
Sounds like a similar on-the-ground account, probably more of a Canadian operations focus since he was at the Canadian Forward Operating Base.
Might have to look up "Wearing the Green Beret"as well.
Thanks
