I think I'll read more Whiting to see if his anti-Ike bias carries through his other works.

At the risk of getting myself in trouble with the moderator (again) I would say that personnally I am not a great fan of this author. His books are all very similar and predictable and probably the best is 'Massacre at Marmedy'
