Title: A whining pathetic waste of time. A disgrace.
Product review: The book is full of falsehoods. Most units that Crawford complains about not staying as long as he did, have served just as long or longer. Many of them have already completed a second year long tour. None of them whined like he did. He complains about everyone in his chain of command as being poor leaders. But why after 7 years of total service, Crawford wasn't serving even as a squad leader? He was a volunteer twice both to active duty in the 101st and then to the National Guard. He would have to be an idiot not to think he would be called to active duty. He was not an accidental soldier, he served because he made a choice to enlist.There are far better soldiers out there, with far better stories about their experience in Iraq. Crawfords story is aself serving dribble.By the way the 101st is now serving its third tour.
