Teaser Tuesday: Joker One

. "Five minutes later, Noriel and I hit the large dirt road that signaled the approach to the cemetery. But no sooner had I breathed a sigh of relief than headlights appeared around a road bend some one hundred meters away, moving rapidly towards us." Joker One: A Marine Platoon's Story of Courage, Leadership, and Brotherhood by Donovan Campbell. I was worried that I wouldn't like this book because, well, to be honest, I'm a chick and this is a war book. But the story is riveting and the writing snappy, so I am tearing through it. Teaser Tuesdays is hosted by Should Be Reading, where you can find the official rules for this weekly event.
