With new attacks set to go underway in Fallujah, I've decided to bookmark The Belmont Club and The Green Side to make them part of my daily reading--probably something I should have done a while ago.
For those who don't know, the Belmont Club is written by anonymous blogger who uses the pseudonym "Wretchard the Cat." It contains an incredible military insight--so much so that a number of folks in the blogosphere are convinced that the author is a military historian or was formerly involved with the CIA or special-ops. Wretchard tells us, however, that he's currently a software developer and has never been in the military or served as US gov't employee or agent.
The Green Side contains letters from Marine Major Dave Bellon (Operations Officer of 4th Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion in Iraq) to his father.
I think both will be well worth reading in the days ahead.
