  3. On Jun 27 2017 Tom Copeland (USCG) read On Call in Hell: A Doctor's Iraq War Story by Cdr. Richard Jadick and commented:

    Another story from the second battle of Fallujah. One common thread I've been seeing in recent books is that senior leaders need to do senior leader things - see the overall picture, make the big plans, ensure that strategic needs are met. A high ranking officer who coordinates effectively can save a lot of lives.

    Technically solid and thoughtful. Very good writeups of the nuts and bolts of Stuxnet - DLL wrapping, techniques used to prevent detection, time periods of operation, etc. Definitely worth your time.
