If you are not reading Michael
Yon’s Online Magazine Blog, you need to be. Michael Yon is a free-lance writer embedded with an Army unit in Iraq. He is completely self financed (with the help of donations) and so is not beholden to deadlines or editorial oversight.

What is included in his reports is strictly a grounds eye view of a combat unit in Iraq. The material is thrilling and confusing. Why aren’t we hearing similar reports from the MSM?

I have included his blog link in my blogroll to the right.
