    I can’t believe that About Face by David Hackworth isn’t on the list.

    More from a polical level approach than to military but still a good look at how to improve the military ability with the proper resources:

    _A Swift, Elusive Sword: What if Sun Tzu and John Boyd Did a National Defense Review?_ by Chester W. Richards
    ISBN: 1932019014

    For the OODA section alone:
    _The Mind of War: John Boyd and American Security_ by Grant Hammond
    ISBN 158834178X

    Maybe we should have read this one:

    And what exactly is a small war?

    War is a Racket(MOH recipient)
