BAM!! GREAT THRILLER . BAM!!
I'm a vet who loves Coyles novels !! Team Yankee and all the following Novels got me hooked because he knows what 'were picking up his books for' - ACTION!! Besides action though, its all beleivable!! He changes certain things (like rank structure, command and tactics etc..) but not as to make it not work!! especially for us former Vets!! GREAT BOOK!! DON'T HAVE ANY COMPLAINTS!!

Lack of Research
Harold Coyle should do better research about Special Forces and ABN units before focusing a novel on them. In the past I have toughly enjoyed his novels, but this one was annoying. 1st LTs are not XOs on A teams. Warrant officers fill this role. You have to be a 1LT (P) to even apply to Special Forces. Spec 4s are not on A teams either. These oversights may seem minor to some but Coyle lost his credibility in first 20 pages. The rest of the book was painful with more technical oversights and failures in proof reading.

Coyle
Almost got a headache from all of the constant details. Only toward the end of the book did I understand why all of the details. Does not matter how accurate or real, its a fiction book. Its the way of the new generations wars will be fought.

despite rank flaws, ok read
lots of flaws as far as rank in the Spec Ops team,and the 'Ranger' team that is sent to rescue them was totaly not in accordence with military rescue ops. But above all good read, and good one on one feeling for each member of the Spec op team.
