Out standing author on the military, I have been reading his books for years and have almost all of his titles, both his books under W.E.B. Griffin and under other names. He also wrote the books series M*A*S*H which the TY show was based on. The series which this piece is written about I only had in paperback, was glad to see the first three books put together, and hope the publisher does the same with the rest of the series. His series on the Marine Corps is also great. My Dad served under MAcArthur and in New Guinea according to him hit the nail on the head about "Mac".
