I recommend Heinlein’s Star Ship Troopers, [it is required reading by all Marines Cpl & below, even though just about all Marines have read it]

Think Al Gray put “ENDER’S GAME” on the reading list. Ender’s leadership though excellence and flexibility in the battle room was a perfect tie-in with the maneuver warfare push (William Lind)at the time and made it a great fit.

Cheers!

Starship Troopers should be required reading for anyone who professes to be conservative or libertarian. Yes I said libertarian. It's a story about personal responsibility but that with it comes consequences that a proper citizen must accept.

Heinlein was in absolute genius mode when he wrote that book.
