What is /k/ reading today?
Just started pic related.

This book has been very insightful into one of the most extraordinary military units in the world. What I don't get is, the Bongs refuse immigration rights to both colonial troops and interpreters and skilled personnel from Shitcanistan and wherever else, but somehow is willing to take Syrian refugees in droves. Really irritating.
Not weapons related but i like to think history and war-time politics as part of /k/. Plus its pretty damn interesting. One part of the book that stood out for me was when it detailed how the Soviets managed to get the various venues at Yalta up and running in the shortest time despite the place being pretty much shot to shit a few weeks before.

Interesting fact about Yalta, apparently Stalin feigned drinking vodka which was just clear water, while Churchill and Roosevelt kept on drinking, so Stalin had is wits about him the whole time.

I thought Gurkhas got a pass on immigration if they wanted it?
Very good read so far.
>nice to see an unbiased view of WWII
This one is real interesting. Being a sniper enlisted after Stalingrad and the long retreat back to Germany. Some truly horrific shit in this book.
This counts as a book, right?

In the surface it doesn't seem very /k/, but it is the book that inspired the stalker series. I've also started on the biography of montgomery
