Killer Instint

"The characteristics act of man at war is not dying, it is killing. For politicians military strategists, and many historians, war maybe about the conquest of territory or the struggle to recover a sense of national honour but for the man on active service warfare is concerned with the lawful killing of other people."

That statement I found really summed up the experience and reality of war. This book is a understanding of the personal traumas and brutality that soldiers suffer during warfare. In all honesty I would recommend reading this book, although not for bedtime. It goes into depth on the twisted mentality of a killer.
