Over at the Modern War Institute (a great resource both for articles and a podcast!), Major Ryan Leach looks at a number of books that (mostly) came out of the (first) Gulf War and how it applies to today's military. I read most of the titles listed and while you may find nuggets therein, I think that we need to take one or two steps back: books written with a greater passage of time reflecting on these people and that conflict, and books written by those not directly involved (and more likely to be less involved emotionally and more able to incorporate a wider number of sources) might be more worth your time.
