Beschreibung

Imagine going to war for a year with no assurance that you would ever return.


In Dr. Robert Elliott's Citizen Soldier: From the Land of Lincoln to Iraq and Back, readers learn what it is like to say goodbye to a wife and three children and then travel across Iraq by convoy and helicopters. You'll learn about the stressors, the dangers, and the risks taken and retaken.


The author gives vivid accounts of:

  • Walking the ancient ruins of Babylon
  • Transporting detainees to Abu Ghraib Prison
  • Meeting with Ukrainian soldiers near the Iranian border
  • Calling in a medevac after a roadside bomb attack
  • Sustaining a mortar attack


Citizen Soldier: From the Land of Lincoln to Iraq and Back is written from a soldier's perspective, inviting you to experience the emotional roller coaster that service members and their families voluntarily endure to support and defend the Constitution of the United States.
