9781520695365: Adjust Fire: Transforming to Win in Iraq

Synopsis

Ride with a U.S. Army battalion from First Cavalry Division in the toughest years of the Iraq War and discover what the media didn't share and could never tell you...“My objective since retirement has been to educate Americans about the war in Iraq and to tell them the ‘inside story’ of the Army, its soldiers, and what we have been doing since 2003 in Iraq. The news media: print, television, and radio do a very poor job of articulating what America’s military is doing in Iraq. I can do better.” The early years of the Iraq War looked grim. This book tells the "inside the Army story." Readers who seek to know how the Army conducted its business leading to success in Iraq will see, in graphic terms, how the work was accomplished with the successes and failures. The reader gets the unique opportunity to literally follow an Army battalion commander working in a key neighborhood of Baghdad called Al Rashid. The book walks the streets of Baghdad, rides on patrols down the IED laden "Airport Road" and let's you sit in on the councils of warriors, and walk among the people of Iraq.
