A list of books I've read recently with some occasional gibberish thrown in.

SEMPER COOL - Barry Fixler
Barry Fixler was a Marine in Vietnam. He fought, he had friends maimed and killed but he survived and got on with his life.
He writes this memoir of the war as a positive experince, something he has recieved criticim for, but for this individual it was something he did, was proud to do and would do it again.
He writes well of the combat situation and of life in the camps. He was at of Khe Sanh and that was hellish, but again he writes of it as one of lifes experiences, he was fortunate to survive and he just caarried on.
Mr Fixler is one of lifes optimists and writes a good little book, which he has done for charity. Recommended.
