Great book
Mostly about Congo and the US army. Very good addition to the series.

Way too much empty conversation.
I don't know why I keep reading Griffin's novels. I guess because I hope this one will be better than the last.... If you take out all the Officers Club conversation the book would shrink to maybe 10 pages. And please, Mr. Griffin, get somebody fluent in the language to help with the expressions and names in Spanish! And maybe even English -- instead of "Hear, hear," he writes "Here, here." Hello? Is there an editor in the house?

And the cursing -- way too much and inappropriate in many cases. I think the cursing in this book alone adds up to more than I heard in 21 years in the Air Force!

Oh well, maybe the next one will be better.
