Extremely Disappointed

I'm extremely disappointed that the book ended. I've now read all 5 of Andrew Turbins' books and I'm thirsting for more. I spent 3+ years in Afghanistan, 2011-2014, and this book brought back many memories, emotions and fears. I love Andrew's writing style, close attention to detail, accuracy in his research and overall ability to tell a story. I would have binged on reading this book but filing my taxes made me take a break! Andrew, I want more. More excitement, more adventure, maybe a little romance with Jayne?
