Message: <blockquote data-quote="SoonerP226" data-source="post: 3381559" data-attributes="member: 26737">I just finished Leadership In the Shadows by SGM Kyle Lamb, USA (Ret.). As you might guess, this is a book on leadership, and it's one of the better books I've read on the subject.FYI, that's Kyle Lamb of Viking Tactics, formerly of the Army's Operational Detachment Alpha (aka Delta Force). He was in the Battle of Mogadishu as a Delta operator; as he put it, he wasn't at the bottom of the chain, but it wouldn't be far to fall from where he was. He does talk a bit about the leadership lessons to be learned from "the Mog," but he doesn't talk a lot about the battle; if you want to hear that, look for "three veterans recall the Battle of Mogadishu" on YouTube. That's him and two officers who were involved in the battle talking in detail about it.</blockquote>
