I read this book 13 years ago, not my sons are interested in it. I don't remember enough of the details to make an informed decision about it. Is it okay for 10-15 year olds? Is there bad language that I need to be aware of? Etc. Flicking through the book, I didn't see any thing objectionable, but want to make sure before handing it over to them. Thanks!

In Easy, and at Taccoa, he was the "most experienced leader" in the company. Always remember that the US military was predicated on the expansible force concept at this time. The US Army went from something like 170,000 to 11 Million men from 1941-1945. Afterwards, it drew back down. Then, after Korea, the US adopted a policy of a standing military. One it maintains today. (less)
