I have no clue what the war in Afghanistan is about or where it is. There is no historical or cinematic reference point, nor a cultural link to facilitate comprehension of the geographical backdrop to the humanitarian drama.
This book shows you awesome guns, explosions and soliders, but many of them were killed and its a sad ghost book.
Like Rambo in First Blood they will, or have, or will not, return home,. They probably have a difficult time coping with post war. You can see it before it happens on their faces as they crouch in dusty trenches and behind stone walls.
This book brings war into focus and helped me understand what the fuck was going on out there.
