Summary:
"Valhalla Boys is definitely a different read from what you would expect from a soldier's tale of fighting in Iraq.You really get inside the mind of the author.It's more about what it means to be a fighter than about Iraq...writing also makes it feel like a novel sometimes rather than an autobiography.
