[Maj. Gen. (ret) Robert] Scales on War: The Future of America's Military at Risk
The book has one endorsement of perhaps some particular interest.
Combining his combat experience with a life-long study of men in direct combat, Bob Scales has written a classic. In this eye-opening and authentic work, he articulates a provocative yet sensible way for our nation to overcome its institutional neglect of the infantry. Lets apply now the wisdom of our top warrior-scholar who has demonstrated again his penetrating understanding of combat at the point of maximum danger."―Gen. James N. Mattis, USMC (Ret.)
