Publisher's Summary

Using humor, pop culture, and even musical references, Michael Friedman re-creates the wartime experience in a narrative that is part memoir, part journalism, part military history. The years in question were pivotal ones, seeing the perfection of a type of warfare that would eventually be exported to Afghanistan and Iraq and has come to seem like the only kind of warfare in existence - wars in which there is never any clear victory, but not quite enough lives are lost to rally the country against it. The dramatic events on this one small hilltop sent out ripples that continue to emanate worldwide.

Good book poor narrator

The fact that the narrator couldn't correctly pronounce various Israeli and Palestinian names and place names was jarring each time it happened. And a rather monotone reading. For my first Audibles experience, it left me wanting alot more in presentation.
