Just Another Soldier

Just Another Soldier is more than a war story: it delivers an intimate look at a generation of young men and women on the front lines of American policy. It takes the reader past the images seen on the nightly news and into the day-to-day reality of life on the ground as an infantryman in the first war of the twenty-first century. From the adrenaline rush of storming a suspected insurgent's house to the sheer boredom of downtime on the base, and to the horror of dead civilians, Jason Christopher Hartley examines his role as a man, as a soldier, and as an American on foreign soil.
