Generation Kill is about the young men sent to fight their nation's first open-ended war since Vietnam Despite the flurry of media images to come of the recent wars in Afghanistan & Iraq you have never really met any of these people who serve as front-line troops For whatever reason the media simply doesn't get them As we all know news accounts of the last two wars focused almost exclusively on battlefield imagery of high-tech weapons wreaking astounding destruction comply with analysis from retired army grandees & other experts punctuated by the odd heart-warming patriotic sound-bite The troops themselves play a role in the media's presentation of recent wars rather like extras in The Triumph of the Will They are everywhere yet somehow invisible When they speak you get the sense that what they are saying has been carefully scripted Now Generation Kill tells the soldiers' story in their own words The narrative focuses on a platoon of 23 marines many of them veterans of Afghanistan whose elite reconnaissance unit spearheaded the blitzkrieg on Iraq This is the story of young men that have been trained to become ruthless killers It's about surviving death It's about taking part in a war many questioned before it even began Evan Wright was the only reporter with First Recon which operated well ahead of most other forces usually behind enemy lines They were among the first marines sent into the fight & one of the last units still engaged on the outskirts of Iraq even after the city centre fell Generation Kill is not just a combat chronicle but an inside look at how people fighting in war actually experience it It is both an action narrative like Black Hawk Down & a detailed portrait of a generation at war along the lines of Band of Brothers It is not a book you are going to forget in a hurry ...
