Description

An Iraq War memoir and searing political commentary from Fox News regular and “America’s Favorite Black, Gay Republican” Rob Smith

Moonlight meets American Sniper in this groundbreaking memoir and political commentary from a bold new voice in American politics. Before he became a war veteran and political analyst, he was a young black man who enlisted in the US Army right out of high school, survived the notoriously brutal infantry basic training, and served while remaining a closeted gay man to all but a few of his colleagues. At his first duty station, he finds himself in dangerous territory when the United States declares war on Iraq; in fact, his unit was one of the first called in after the initial invasion. 

Rob’s experience offers a ground-level view of life on the front lines in the United States Army in an unforgettable coming-of-age story with a military twist. In addition to his memoir, Always a Soldier highlights his thoughts on current hot-button political topics like the new crop of Black Republicans and the escalating tactics of the LGBTQ community, announcing him as a voice in American politics that will be heard for years to come.

An inspiring tale that doesn't pull any punches

It was refreshing to read an autobiography told with such honesty. I've always admired Rob but I made some assumptions about who he was. His polish made me conclude he grew up in upper middle class privilege. Not so. Rob is a self-made man who came from a home with a lot of challenges. He joined the army for the chance to go to college. He entered as an out-of-shape teenager who struggled to keep up. On the verge of giving up, a hard-ass drill sergeant pulled him aside and incentivized that near-defeated teenager to come back fighting and reveal the man waiting to be born. An inspiring book..
