An interesting heartfelt book about the Ramadi battle told by Major Scott Huesing of Echo Company. Numerous deployments and a company of young Marines under his command, Scott takes you on the journey of the battle trying to help Iraq against insurgents & the taliban. At war with unseen enemies and trying to clear a city this book introduces you up close and personal to the battle and takes you through the planning, losses of men, & what happens after these Marines come home from war. I gave it a 4 star because the word "friction" was used in almost every chapter.
