Synopsis

"The moral structure, defining what is known to be right and what is accepted as wrong, quickly fades..."

During the Iraqi Spring Uprising of 2004, a soldier embarks on a bizarre odyssey protecting supply convoys from insurgent attacks. His gun truck team encounters diverse challenges as the insurgents shift their disruptive focus from the coalition controlled cities and terrorize the desert highways. Issued Humvees absent protective armor plating, his strained team defies ever-changing odds in determining their greatest threat - the insurgents, the “hajji”, or their leaders.

The author opens his personal journal and guides readers through his team's experiences of perpetual struggle. Incidents gathered from assistance in over 270 convoy missions as well as numerous patrols to include escorting the legendary Black Watch near the Triangle of Death.
