Mila 18 (title), Leon Uris (author), 1961 (1st ed)<br /><br />Mila 18 is set in Nazi occupied Warsaw Poland before and during WW-II . . . based on actual events . . . covers the Nazi occupation of Poland and the atrocities of systematically dehumanising and eliminating the Jewish People of Poland. The term ghetto takes on a clearer meaning as the courageous Jewish resistance fighters pursue a losing battle against not only the Nazis and their henchmen, but also profiteers and collaborators amongst themselves. Eventually, as the ghetto is reduced to rubble, a few courageous individuals with few weapons and no outside help assume command of ghetto defence, form a makeshift army and make a stand . . . attacking Nazi tanks with Molitov cocktails. Later, this army led to the formation of the State of Israel. <br /><br />The reader will get depressed . . . and yet this powerful story instills wonderful hope for belief in human nature and man's ability to survive. As a young girl . . . I found the stories of small band of resistance fighters awe inspiring.Response by 1LT Private RallyPoint Member made Dec 13 at 2014 1:52 AM2014-12-13T01:52:56-05:002014-12-13T01:52:56-05:00CPL Rick Stasny368582<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Jackdaws by Ken Follett.

This book changed how I saw the world and what I really wanted for myself. The concept of "Service" in order to become a "Citizen" jelled in me for some reason and I decided at that time I wanted to do more than just earn a living. (Maybe this is TMI and too good a look into my psyche, but...) At 12 years old I decided I wanted to be more than just another person in the USA. I was not sure if it was the military or some other way, but there had to be something I could do.<br /><br />The next book the really WOWed me was "Hunt for Red October." I was in the Navy and working as and Electronics Tech. when this book came out. Shortly after As I was reading it, I was in the Senior Enlisted Academy and we were discussing all of the information Tom Clancy had disclosed in his book, much very close to TS information. None of us could understand how he had gotten his information without being in the Navy, unless he was really a pseudonym for some person. Suck a well written book and so close to reality.<br /><br />Along the way - well anything by Leon Uris, W.E.B. Griffin, and many of Clive Cussler's.Response by CMDCM Gene Treants made Dec 13 at 2014 7:37 PM2014-12-13T19:37:42-05:002014-12-13T19:37:42-05:00LTC Private RallyPoint Member409887<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Hard to choose a single best book but it would likely be Once an Eagle by Anton Myrer. Much to learn from this story.<br /><br />I've also consistently enjoyed the books by Tom Clancy (the ones he wrote himself; not a big fan of the series and later books that he coauthored with others), W.E.B Griffin, and Harold Coyle.Response by LTC Private RallyPoint Member made Jan 9 at 2015 3:36 PM2015-01-09T15:36:04-05:002015-01-09T15:36:04-05:00LTC Troy P.

The first time I read it, I sat down and did it all in one read. Only breaks were for coffee and pee. It's special to me because the main dud is from my neck of the woods. Louis L'Amour always did his research very well. A fantastic read.Response by SGM Mikel Dawson made Feb 17 at 2015 10:46 PM2015-02-17T22:46:35-05:002015-02-17T22:46:35-05:00Cpl Private RallyPoint Member482777<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Currently plowing through W.E.B.
