Criminal and Civil; and, Bank's Bandits.
According to the book description of Bank's Bandits, it
“relates the birth of the Green Berets and the coming of age in the army of James Fitzpatrick. It moves from 1950s Boston
to Indiantown Gap, through Jump School and on into Special Forces. With James and his A-team we discover the fearful thrills
of night jumps, the rigors of survival problems and of unconventional warfare, of stealing "aggressor" rations,
of hitting "targets of opportunity," of running one half step ahead of the angry 82nd, and the hilarious complexities
of raising a local army in the Georgia mountains. The authentic, never-before-told story of Aaron Bank's "originals"
in action.”
