"Full Spectrum Disorder"
 
I was at Barnes and Noble today, perusing the current events section, when I noticed a catchy title peering at me from the bottom shelf. Full Spectrum Disorder.

The writers creds are that he retired from the US Army and spent time in an unnamed special direct action unit at Ft. Bragg, participated in the battle of Mogadishu with that same unnamed direct action unit, etc.

His last name is Goff. I have not bought the book, but after reading a couple of paragraphs it seems interesting. Goff touches on the situation in Iraq, and mentions looping and the intiative, saying that the insurgents are seizing the initiative and giving the US Commanders hell, etc. I dont mean that what he talks about is brilliant or anything like that.

Since this is the book review forum I wanted to know if any of you had read the book and might offer some thoughts before I buy it on Tuesday.

Stan is a headcase.

Absolutely 100% guaranteed to be left wing propaganda and not even worth the read.

NousDefionsDoc 08-01-2004 19:16

Team Sergeant 08-01-2004 19:19

NousDefionsDoc 08-01-2004 19:23

It looks a little like him, doesn't it?

Team Sergeant 08-01-2004 19:26

At one time he was a hell of a soldier, then something happened, and he became a totally rabid left wing radical/liberal:
