Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. As new condition black boards with gold spine lettering contained in an as new condition price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Includes List of Other Books by Colonel David H. Hackworth; Author Dedication; Prologue; Acknowledgments; Glossary and Ind…ex. "In Hazardous Duty - a real life, 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 David Hackworth completes a second tour of battlefield duty, this time as a war correspondent. In his hardhitting, inimitable style, he tells of the sacrifices of ordinary grunts in the Balkans, the Persian Gulf, Somalia, Korea, and Haiti, and offers a tough-love critique of American military leadership, explaining America's role in new post-Cold War conflicts. Colonel David H. Hackworth is America's most decorated living soldier, with more than one hundred awards, including two Distinguished Service Crosses, nine Silver Stars, eight Bronze Stars for valor, and eight Purple Hearts, which he considers the most meaningful because, he says, "they can't be faked." 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 - who cheered every word of his widely acclaimed autobiography. A wake-up call for military reform, Hazardous Duty pulls no punches in calling America's top political and military leaders to account for selling out duty, honor, and country. Colonel Hackworth returns from America's new battlefields to report that the Pentagon is wasting billions of dollars. He offers no-nonsense solutions for streamlining the military services and rationalizing their missions to confront the new face of war. Hackworth writes in his Introduction, "All my life I thought I loved the Army. Now .I began thinking, No, I never loved the Army. What I always loved were the troops. And I love them still. I love them because they are what it's all about, soldiers on hazardous duty sharing the dangers of war, forged strong and pure and true .Becauses they do the dying. They are the absolute truth." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. Davis, Peter (books design); Aquan, Richard L. (jacket design); Skoogfors, Leif (author photograph) (illustrator).
