Reading

One "drawback" to reading history as opposed to fiction is there's no smarmy condensed version on wikipedia keeping track of the names and places for you.

I'm presently reading "Victory Point" by Ed Darack.  I'm encountering the odd phenomenon of already understanding what the author is explaining because I was in the military; but understanding that lots of people won't understand without that exposition.
