A Boy Among Titans
Rick Shad has a new book out, A Boy Among
Titans.

http://www.oldmp.com/aboyamongtitans.htm

The book tells of his experience in attending the Q
course at age 18. It is very well written and is sure to
bring back memories and a few chuckles. I highly
recommend it.

All profits go to the

Special Operations Warrior Fund

Ummmmm, in the bio - he was a Platoon Sergeant on an ODA, then a Commo Sergeant - does this seem odd to anybody else?

It doesn't say "Plt Sgt on ODA". It just says Plt Sgt. IIRC Signal Co had platoons at the time and it was a normal thing for 18Es to get stuck there for a while. Not sure if that's still the case. FWIW - Peregrino
