Just finished two of my recent purchases.

War Plan Orange: The U.S. Strategy to Defeat Japan, 1897-1945

Inside the Danger Zone: The U.S. Military in the Persian Gulf, 1987-1988


War Plan Orange was extremely detailed and full of a little written about subject, the pre-war plans for dealing with Japan.

Danger Zone was a fine study of the Persian Gulf Tanker War of the late '80s.
It nicely complimented No Higher Honor, the story of the mining of USS Samuel B Roberts.
