Reddit reviews American Cipher: Bowe Bergdahl and the U.S. Tragedy in Afghanistan

I was listening to an interview with the author of this book, who is ex-military himself, and he said something like "If you know anyone who is thinking about joining the military because they're looking for purpose, excitement, like being seen as tough, etc, etc, tell them to join the coastguard instead. You are still cool and in uniform and have a sense of brotherhood everything, and the training is intense, but instead of shooting Afghanistan's version of rednecks and participating in America's fucked up foreign policy, you're saving people's lives."

I thought it was good advice to pass on
