+1 on Lone Survivor by Marcus Lutrell, VERY GOOD book about navy seals, their training and an unbelievable mission in Afghanistan.
Another favorite of mine is Undaunted Courage by Stephen Ambrose, about Lewis and Clark very good read again.

About anything. I'm gonna read Lone Survivor but kinda would like to read some good financial type books (i.e. the millionaire next door). I'd like to be more educated on saving, investing, etc.
