Special Forces: Soldiers Part II -Director's Cut

This is the improved "Director's Cut" version. I fixed about a million typos, factual mistakes, clunky point-of-views shifts, mistakes in word choice and pacing issues that were overlooked in the original edit. To edit well, I need to get distance from the text, which can take a year or even two. This is the version that represents my vision of the text.
In terms of changes, the text ends a little earlier than the original "Soldiers", so it can stand on its own. The final battle in the hotel has been moved to the start of "Mercenaries", but no other big changes have been made.

I know it sounds illogically- the author made the whole fantastic job of improving and fixing the original editing and I have no doubt that it is great. BUT. Having seen the number of pages in the original and in the director's cut version I have decided to start with the original. I didn't want to miss any single words, any single event, any single fact and yeah any single mistake- probably I have not even noticed the last point. Just love this book too much. And I have also a close affinity to original things. I promise to read the editing version when I'll reread it. It might be soon. ;-)
