A portrait of Samuel Johnson by Joshua Reynolds showing Johnson pulling a book's cover back and concentrating intensely on its words. It also, Johnson felt, shows his weak eyes. 1775 Daily Thoughts 10/31/2009
I am reading Small Unit Leadership A Common Sense Approach by Col. Dandrige M. Malone. I am not a military person, but I find this book to be quite interesting. The author uses oral accounts of people who experienced combat. Right now, there are two different American soldiers giving accounts of their unit leaders as they experienced them in Vietnam. The language is in the vernacular, it is full of expletives, but it is also very real sounding. The book is very readable.
