Re: Delta Force: A Memoir by the Founder of the U.S. Military's Most Secretive Special-Operations Unit

Even before I crack the book, I'll trust he doesn't approach things or write like Richard Marcinko.

On a semi-related note about applying military discipline to business/organizations, a book I can semi-recommend is Extreme Ownership (2017), by SEALs Jocko Willink and Leif Babin. Some reviewers panned it as having too many war stories and too few innovative ideas, so I'll leave it as semi-recommend. Not necessarily a classic to keep on the shelf, but I personally enjoyed it. They did a follow-up book titled The Dichotomy of Leadership that I haven't read.

Re: Delta Force: A Memoir by the Founder of the U.S. Military's Most Secretive Special-Operations Unit

A reprint from 2013, and I've never read it. How have I never read it? I'm gonna die with about 300 books on my to-read list.

But I just bought the Kindle version of this one; only $4.99. It's next up on my nonfiction list. ;-)

Thanks, Paladin.
