"Confirms all your worst fears about homos in the military. They have sex! Really horny sex. With straight soldiers. The bastards." - Mark Simpson, author of The Queen Is Dead; "These stories are hotter than any fiction because they are so thrillingly, achingly real. In this post-modern era of digital enhancement...authenticity is something that you can never put your hand around." - Steven Zeeland; "Outstanding...A deeper read than the simple stroke book, one that's bound to stay with the reader a long time." - Playguy

Hotter than fantasy because it's real.
This book may not be for those who prefer paint-by-number porn fantasies about seamen and admirals frigging in the rigging under fire during a typhoon with more dirty talk adjectives on one page than Jeff Stryker has uttered in his entire career. (There are hundreds of books in that genre, the Boyd McDonald series still being the best of them.) What this book does offer are honest stories of real-life military guys having sex in the barracks, in a Navy chapel, on a Camp Pendleton tank trail -- and in some other even more dangerous places. In "Semen in a Bullet" a gay Army Ranger has sex in a straight soldier's mobile home -- with his buddy's wife visible through the cracked bedroom door. I like how the sex stories are told in the way military men actually talk. The book does tease quite a bit, but to me that makes the explicit details all that much more...effective. Oh yeah -- and the pictures are pretty hot, too.

What a waste of money!
Thought that this book might of been a little more 'saucy' than I thought. Def would not recommend this book and am def going to resell on!

From the voice of experience
I must have bought this book for two reasons: 1 for research on gender issues; and 2 to see personal experiences in print. Nothing brings memories so to life than seeing its subject displayed as an object. Having said that, I am sure there must be many other reasons why people would be interested in seeing the strict taboo barriers of masculinity and femininity broken down to a level where they can be approached with personal human sensitivity.

Nothing attracts like a man in uniform, sheer 'canned male energy'. Maybe we tend to forget that in such encounters we actually bring our own fantasies alive, and live them out in the company of those who are willing and able to compliment theirs with ours. IN the process we find ourselves trying to balance our own perceptions and expectations.

The unity of like-minded spirits is not always a successful or lasting union of bodies, as this book also shows. The path the nature of things provides often veers off the maps we try to follow. Were this book dealing only with the quick and dirty of back-alley, physically meaningless, relationships, I wouldn't have bothered. On the whole it benefits from meaningful personal insights. Why else would people want to bring them into print, or read about them? These stories bring to light that the social definitions we superficially adhere to are less rigid than expected. And in many cases we are willing to bring them down to to be examined up close.

If anything, this book supports the reality that strict gender separation into male and female is a myth. That anything so prized as the epitome of 'unsillied' masculinity, the soldier, could be brought (literally) to his knees, is proof enough that even the most rigid of ideas can easily be blown away. Among all that, the ultimate fantasy fulfilment is still 'love'.
