the best bet would be military non fiction, as most of the military fiction i've read has been fairly hokey. some good authors for non fiction:
mark bowden(blackhawk down, killing pablo(i think thats the title, something pablo))
stephen ambrose(band of brothers, anything else by him, really)

Starship Troopers is a good read...wasn't thinking of the Military (Science) Fiction category.
Lots of good military non-fiction...concur with you on Bowden.
...and military non-fiction that borders (or may actually be) fiction. Rogue Warrior was an entertaining read...not sure how much is true though.
