Spent Shell Casings: 25 (and 5) Stories

Dave was there for it allâ€” there for the millennial latch-key children's plunge into bloody and politically-dubious combat, there for the US military's rocky evolution from Cold War Era to fighting the global war on terror, and there for his own turbulent, colorful transitionsâ€”all in the unforgiving jungles of hyper-masculinity.

The â€˜90s era of transgressive novelsâ€”American Psycho, Trainspotting, Fight Clubâ€”bored, bad boys who'd do anything to feel. . . what exactly? This chaotic premise has returned; nowâ€”and for the first timeâ€”in the form of a military memoire-exposÃ©.

An artistic nail-bomb: Spent Shell Casings encompasses just about every sordid and hilarious aspect of military life that could ever grace a page, all the while exposing the dark sides of adventure and the fighting man in ways that can no longer be ignored.

Whether Iraq, a psych ward, or a barroom brawl, coming to terms with ones upbringing or drug abuse: join a Recon Marine at various points on the deadly map of war, meaning, and the American experience.
