Road Hunter in the Land between the Rivers

"The moral structure defining what is known to be right and what is accepted as wrong quickly fades." Deployed to Iraq (Operation Iraqi Freedom) during 2004 in support of the War on Terror, a soldier embarks on a yearlong journey protecting convoy supply routes. Sent as part of a National Guard unit to provide military support, his convoy security team - Road Hunter One-Six - encounters extraordinary challenges as the insurgents shift their disruptive focus from the larger cities and infiltrate the once peaceful desert highways. From the rolling plains of the Dakotas to the seemingly endless desert of Iraq, the author guides readers through his personal journal detailing his team's experiences of struggle and pain. Incidents pulled from assistance in over 270 convoy missions as well as numerous patrols to include a possible paranormal occurrence. This title details a firsthand account of the harsh, dangerous, and chaotic life of gun truck soldiers.
