As it is Veteran's Day here in the United States, we're spending the weekend recognizing the service and sacrifice thousands of men and women provided throughout our nation's history, allowing us the freedoms we enjoy every day. With that in mind, I thought I would take a few minutes and dive into the Book Roulette, pulling some books that feature members of the military and veterans.
