I enjoyed this book despite it being depressing and about the horror of war. The author did a good job depicting the feelings of the narrator and, although there wasn't much dialog, it rang true.
Murphy and Bartle are young privates, their Sargent (Sterling) tells Bartle to take care of Murphy during basic training. When they end up in Iraq together, Bartle does the best he can but Murphy ends up losing it Bartle is forced to make a snap decision about what is best for Murphy, his family and himself. Things don't turn out too well for anyone.
When I read books about war I always wonder if they have been read by people who vote to send others to war.
