Review
Testimonial #1 from Lieutenant General, Eric Schoomaker, 42nd Army Surgeon General
"What a phenomenal book . . . thank you for capturing the enormous contributions of military medicine to life-saving, comprehensive health and safety of America's fighting men and women. The authors have done an extraordinary job and the pictures are without peer! It brought back many deeply personal memories and reflections on the many heroes these warns spawned among our Warriors and Military Medics (writ large) who cared for them. You and Eric Elster have done a great service to these heroes. Required reading for every concerned citizen, elected representative and military leader .... and for every member of the Military Health System. These lessons cannot be permitted to shrink into obscurity." -- Lieutenant General (LTG) Eric Shoomaker, 42nd Army Surgeon General, US Army (Ret.)
