Colonel David H. Hackworth— one of America's most decorated soldiers— served in World War II, Korea, and Vietnam. After retiring from the military in 1971, he completed a second tour of battlefield duty as a war correspondent. Accompanying our nation's fighting men and women to the Persian Gulf, Bosnia, Somalia, Korea, and Haiti, what he learned was shocking: high-level military incompetence, futility, and corruption.
Hazardous Duty is a necessary wake-up call for military reform— a no-holds-barred, no-punches-pulled exposé that calls America's top political and military leaders to account for selling out duty, honor, and country. A riveting, real-life adventure, this works also tells of courageous warriors on the world's new battlefields— and offers solutions to problems that must be addressed if our nation is to remain the foremost military power in a volatile and ever-changing world.
