- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A great summary with a plethora of unusual details. I really enjoyed the TA-50 details and uniform details. Additionally, the description of the FTX finale was great considering it in the context of how it has apparently evolved fro my other readings. Great book.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Brilliant! A very neat and detailed explanation on the USSF. Very interesting detail, that those were different than USASF; Also good to know from where the inspiration of the A-Team comes from :) ;
