Thank you both for writing such a book. Our troops are getting the job done! And we must fight this fight. Our futures and very lives depend on it

As a mother with both a son and daughter in the military, I am always reading books about the war in Iraq. I have to say that this book is wonderful! It gives us civilians a look into the "ins and outs" of this war (i.e., why we are there (in case you don't know!) and what our men and women are doing over there).
Thank you for taking the time to put such a wonderful compilation of information and pictures together for us. Every American should read this book - it will open your eyes!

As a military mom, I'm very sensitive to news and stories about our American heroes. This book is well done with the respect our troops deserve.

Normally I would not choose to read a military/war book. I purchased this book for my teenage sons because I had heard so many wonderful reviews about it. When it came in the mail, I peeked inside and the pictures were so compelling, I started to read it. I didn't want to put it down! Before long I had read the whole book and I loved it!!!! It was refreshing and also eye opening to hear about what it's been like in Iraq from someone who has actually spent so much time there up-close and personal. Thank you Oliver North for sharing so eloquently the reality of the amazing sacrifice our troops (and their families) make for us every day! Also, thank you for reminding us why they are there!!! Listening to the main stream media has become akin to reading the "National Enquirer" while standing in the check out line. Since reading this book, I have a new perspective on the war and our heroes!

The photographs are amazing. This book is telling the story from "ground zero" in Iraq of the heroic men and women we have serving and giving their lives for our freedom. I am purchasing one each for two men that I am very proud of who served there, and one for my son who may go soon to either Afghanistan or Iraq.
