Be awed, moved, and inspired In this one-of-a-kind collection of Reader's Digest's
best military pieces, you'll meet ordinary people faced with
extraordinary circumstances in the name of America and freedom.
People such as Staff Sergeant Jeff Sarver, whose mission day after
day was to get it right the first time or die as he and his team
disarmed hundreds of improvised explosive devices in Iraq; and
Colonel Greg Gadson, a double amputee whose inspirational message
of courage, perseverance, and teamwork helped lead the
then-struggling Giants to a Super Bowl victory in 2007. These
articles remind us of all those in uniform who go above and beyond
the call of duty, including the 1000-man crew of the USS Point
Cruz who cared for an abandoned infant in Korea until his
adoption in the United States, and the Green Beret who risked his
life to save a dying Afghan girl.
Charged with emotion and packed with unbelievable strength and
courage, Stories in Uniform will both engage and inspire
you -- and provide deeper insight into our country's
military. pub date: 2013-05-02 | Hardcover | 9781621450634 |
