About Face

The Odyssey of an American Warrior

Colonel David H. Hackworth

This bestselling war memoir tells the inspiring story of Colonel David H. Hackworth, who devoted his life to the US Army and became a living legend. From Korea to Berlin, from the Cuban missile crisis to Vietnam, Hackworth's experiences offer a powerful portrait of patriotism and the changing fortunes of the American military. His book is a vivid portrayal of selflessness and an indictment of the Pentagon's misunderstandings that fueled the Vietnam conflict. It’s no wonder many Vietnam veterans consider this book the most important of their generation.

I had About Face next to my bed in Ramadi. I literally read it every night. That’s how I'd fall asleep.      source
