I tried reading this book and had to close it. Maybe just a bad day for reading, but I was bored out of my mind trying to get through the first couple of sections.
Any of my 2PPCLI bretheren out there that enjoyed the book?
I was talking to a guy that was there , I will ask him next time I see him what he thinks of that book. I talked to him a bit about it , caught in the crossfire sounded like. I was thinking of reading that one myself
Not ex CF but i did read the book some years ago. Thought it was a good read.

My friend and hunting partner was there, and had a huge roll in that offensive! Told me absolute horror stories of the place!! Always wanted to read it!!

the medak pocket is in Croatia . Canada was involved in peace keeping operations there . Somebody that was there would be better to ask about what really went on there. There is more to the story than the general public generally knows . this was in the early 90s
There is a documentary on it, it can be found on YouTube. Just type in Medak Pocket" and you'll find it.
It's very interesting what goes on behind the scenes and we the general public never or rarely find out about. The battle of Medak Pocket is one of those stories.
