In the Company of
Soldiers: A Chronicle of Combat by Rick Atkinson
Atkinson is the best-selling
author of the WWII in Europe trilogy, An Army at Dawn, The Day of Battle, and
The Guns at Last Light. During the invasion of Iraq, he was embedded with
the 101srt Airbourne division, specifically with the CO, MGen David Petraeus. This
put him close to both command and the action. His take on Petraeus is very
interesting. For those who want to know more about how it feels at the sharp
end, I recommend this book.
