Colonel David H. Hackworth- one of America's most decorated soldiers- served in World War II, Korea, and Vietnam. After retiring from the military in 1971, he completed a second tour of battlefield duty as a war correspondent. Accompanying our nation's fighting men and women to the Persian Gulf, Bosnia, Somalia, Korea, and Haiti, what he learned was shocking: high-level military incompetence, futility, and corruption. Hazardous Duty is a necessary wake-up call for military reform- a no-holds-barred, no-punches-pulled exposé that calls America's top political and military leaders to account for selling out duty, honor, and country. A riveting, real-life adventure, this works also tells of courageous warriors on the world's new battlefields- and offers solutions to problems that must be addressed if our nation is to remain the foremost military power in a volatile and ever-changing world
