Armor

I'm wondering if I read this. There are two points that I remember. First they were going through whatever device to another world and he gets a bad feeling and against protocol he readies his weapon before he goes through. And thus is one of the only survivors. The second part I remember is him or another person got snuck up on by one of the insects, and someone was bugging them imitating how a huge insect would sneak up on someone. Is that the book?

Yeah. Basically there’s this on going war, the Ant War, with any like alien creatures. There’s high casualty cost like in Starship Troopers and the main character is infantry. Most infantry only survive a couple drops but he’s done like 60 or something.

It’s in my queue to read again.

I'm not asking what the book is about. The question is more along the lines of: do you remember the points I outlined happening in Armor? Because I'm trying to remember if that's the book.

Beginning of mine:

Yeah.

Not sure why you’re confused.

Yeah but then the rest of the reply (the entire context of how yeah was used) was about something else entirely.

*Lol 3 downvotes in a 2 week old thread? Tell me you're using alts without telling me you're using alts.
