Overview

Colonel David H. Hackworth, the maverick military hero and war correspondent, has earned over 70 awards for heroism as well as eight purple hearts. More than any other military commentator, he has the trust and confidence of the millions of soldiers -from foreign armies as well as our own. Hazardous Duty is a real-life, hard-hitting nonfiction thriller set in the ruins of Bosnia and the sands of Saudi Arabia, the deadly alleys of Mogadishu and the teeming streets of Port-au-Prince. Colonel Hackworth returns from these new American battlefields to report that the Pentagon is wasting hundred of billions of dollars gearing up to fight the wrong kind of wars, and offers a tough-love critique of American military leadership, interpreting the new post-Cold War conflicts. "Honest, extremely intelligent, and perhaps the best military leader this country has had since Patton."

    Hackwoth Tells It Like It Is !!!

    I don't always agree with the Col. but you have to respect his view. The stories are told with a realism that makes you feel like your there, very well written and informative about the 'behind the scenes battles' that go on.
