Black Hawk Down Pt2

The book was action packed with a lot of tension: Where they gonna make it out? Was he gonna get shot as he turned the corner? What happend to those two machine-gunners? Etc.

Black Hawk Down

Black Hawk down is an interesting book about a true story. The story is about US peace keeping troops in Mogadishu, Somalia. The US rangers and delta elite units were to capture enemy leaders on a 30 min day-time mission, which turned into a huge long disaster.
I enjoyed the book, mostly because I learned a lot about military tactics and operation. That being said, it was quite grusome with lots of blood and gore.
