Brian Turner is an American poet who served in the US army for seven years, including a year in Iraq. His book, Here, Bullet was published in the UK by Bloodaxe Books. It is a rarity in being a book about war, written from first-hand experience, although his cv is not its main virtue: that comes from the writing. I've been back to it this week for no doubt obvious reasons.
