 A outstanding Brief guide
By Paratrooper
The picture quality in this book is excellent. The book likewise does an magnificent occupation of keeping the pictures and selective information applicable and in good chronological order. Having gone through Basic and Airborne School down in Fort Benning it was great to look back and recognize so much of what was being covered. So you may be assured that these are pics of the actual places being talked regarding and not just replicas or places with a likeness. The book does not go into outstanding depth on any single topic but does a outstanding occupation of giving a brief synopsis of a immense majority of the events. I would highly commend this book for any person mesmerized in reliving a heap of experiences or in learning what may be expected from a trip to Fort Benning.

Wow!
By A
I loved this book. If I was an Army recruiter, I’d have a copy of it on hand 24 hours a day. It would seal the deal with any potential Ranger. The photos make this book, and each one is worth at least a thousand words in telling you in regards to the blood, sweat and tears that go into getting a Ranger. I showed this book to my dad, who passed up the chance to become a Ranger while in the Army in the 1950s, and the glorious photos of Ranger paratroopers made him relive the heartbreak and the “What If?” feelings. This book is a combining adrenaline rush and memorial to the sacrifice of these elite soldiers.
