Synopsis

It took 11 years before I went to war the first time. Little did I know it wasn't going to be my last.

In the aftermath of the terror attacks on 9/11, the US military ramped up for what would become the longest war in American history. For soldiers like Sergeant First Class Christian W. Freed, it was the start of an endless stream of deployments. It began with a C17 trip to Bagram, Afghanistan in Oct 2002, took him to Mosul, Iraq with the 101st Airborne Division, and finally to Camp Victory in Baghdad, Iraq during one of the most significant times of the war.

There are no generals or politicians here. No one writing their memoirs without ever putting their boots in the sand. This is real, raw, and told by the men and women who put their lives on the line for their nation, for their families, and for the people beside them.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Christian W. Freed was born in Buffalo, N.Y. more years ago than he would like to remember. After spending more than 20 years in the active-duty US Army he has turned his talents to writing. Since retiring, he has gone on to publish over 25 military fantasy and science fiction novels, as well as his memoirs from his time in Iraq and Afghanistan, a children's book, and a pair of how to books focused on indie authors and the decision making process for writing a book and what happens after it is published. His first published book (Hammers in the Wind) has been the #1 free book on Kindle 4 times and he holds a fancy certificate from the L Ron Hubbard Writers of the Future Contest. Ok, so it was for 4th place in one quarter, but it's still recognition from the largest fiction writing contest in the world. And no, he's not a scientologist. Passionate about history, he combines his knowledge of the past with modern military tactics to create an engaging, quasi-realistic world for the readers. He graduated from Campbell University with a degree in history and a Masters of Arts degree in Digital Communications from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. He currently lives outside of Raleigh, N.C. and devotes his time to writing, his family, and their two Bernese Mountain Dogs. If you drive by you might just find him on the porch with a cigar in one hand and a pen in the other.
