Then very few will like it because readers in the public have a "terminator" kind of image when it comes to SF,they are puzzled when they hear that SF personnel need to be mentally strong,need the ability to think on their feet.
For example I was reading the comments on a book by Mark Urban "Task Force Black" about the SAS in Iraq and many were commenting that it was crap,dull stuff because they did not get to read the Call of Duty stuff they believe is what SF do.
Coming on to the part "letting people really know what happened" it is sometimes sad to read how people write stuff like "our taxes pay for your gear,we have a right to know what you do,where you go".If they want to know so much then they should spend a few days in A'stan they'll get the idea very well.
I am a nobody to comment on SF/SMU.I am not a BTDT,the best people to judge in such matters are the QP's on this forum.
