Starstrike, Task Force Mars by Kevin Dockery and Douglas Niles
Starstrike is a military shoot-em-up. Regardless of the time frame and setting, it still is a somewhat simplistic and far fetched saga of a group of SEALS. The new SEALS as opposed to the original Navy Seals are space faring commandos. On their first off world training mission they encounter hostile aliens and requite themselves in the tradition of the real Navy Seals. In other words, they kick some alien butt.

Quite violent, but not bad. The humans are the good guys here, but they sure seem to get away with a lot. There is also a gap in the book, not explaining how the sole human starship managed to get an FTL communications device, when no-one even knew one was possible untill in the last 3rd of the book.
A very good book for anyone that enjoys futuristic ground warfare.
