 Hi there Jimmy, I have seen the movie 'The Postman' quite a while ago
 and it was pretty good. Never read the book.

 JA> Not military, but I'm reminded of Rewind by Ken Grimwood. And I 
 JA> haven't mentioned my VERY favorite one - Thrice Upon a Time by
 JA> James P. Hogan. 

 I looked up Ken Grimwood and saw the book 'Replay' which looks really
 interesting! I'm gonna have to find that one. I also haven't read
 'Thrice' and that one also looks very interesting! Thanks for those
 suggestions!
 
 Co> Lee Child    - Reacher series

 JA> Loved the first movie and the television series. Thought about
 JA> reading those. They are worth it?

 They are hit and miss as far as the story lines go. Some of them
 'connect' and some don't. I really like the way Lee Child writes though
 so even the ones with less 'connecting' story lines are fun for me to
 read. The ones that 'connect' are excellent. The first movie was based
 on the book 'One Shot' which was a pretty good one. If you like the
 movie, I think you will like the books as well.

 Thanks for your reply Jimmy! Have a wonderful day!
