Author (and USNA English instructor) Fleming is, of course, welcome to his opinion that Annapolis offers a substandard education, but I grew weary of his personal indulgences-- especially those about his own impressive physique, his solitary resistance to administrative dogma, and his unique understanding of the plebe mind.

<p>Makes you wonder why he debases himself by teaching lowly Midshipmen. :rolleyes:</p>
<p>I just finished reading "Imperial Grunts". It is at times a hard read but an excellent book. It gives you a great insight into the work performed worldwide by our special forces and how that work is appreciated by the people that are served...despite what the media would have you believe.</p>
<p>Don't forget "Dereliction of Duty" by my homeboy H.R. McMaster.</p>
<p>"Ender's Game" -Orson Scott Card
"Starship Troopers"-Robert Heinlein(USNA Grad)</p>
<p>Both books were on the Commandant of the Marine Corps reading list</p>
<p>Marines can read? :confused:</p>
<p>JUST KIDDING! :D</p>
<p>I absolutely love Ender's Game.</p>
<p>Of course, my dad tells a story about a CO he once had that required that every person in the unit take a book with them to the combat zone, to get away and relax when they had down time.</p>
