Last Post On The Topic

The history at the end of the last post includes, under authors' names, links to their Suck output. It's all good stuff, but I have to recommend Chris Bray's work in particular. This, to pick at random, is excellent, as well as absolutely anything on the list with a military-sounding title. He is also the man who forever ruined J.D. Salinger for me, something for which I suppose I am grateful.

Post-Suck, he would occasionally surface in other outlets, mostly in order to rip Victor Davis Hanson a new orifice. As far as I can figure, he's currently in UCLA's History graduate program, blogging here with some compadres, and was recently (gulp) called back up. There's going to be - there may already be - a glut of soldier's memoirs on the market in the years to come, but someone should offer Bray a large sum of money for one regardless.
