As a veteran of Iraq, I think this is easily the best book to come out of the Global War on Terror so far. "Emotionally powerful" and "insightful" seem too trite to describe the vivid detail and brutal honesty that could only be captured by our U.S. troops on the group (and in the air and sea), as well as the often-forgotten group of their loved ones back home. If you say you support the troops, please read this book so when you say "Thank you" to them, you will have a greater appreciation of the sacrifices they make and the hardships they endure.

One of the best inside the war books ever written. We can never truly know what these men, women, and families go through, but this gives enough insight to make you laugh and cry with them.
