The joint Army-Marine Corps units assembled for the fight epitomized all the very best in the American warrior and the teamwork displayed between Soldier and Marine in combat. Along the way he captures leadership lessons from his mentor, LtGen Hal Moore and his Battalion Commander in Fallujah as well as his own lessons gleaned on the battlefield. Ghosts of Fallujah is a riveting firsthand account of one of the toughest fights of the Iraq War." <em>- LtGen Rich Natonski USMC (Ret) CG 1st MarDiv Operation Al Fajr</em></p><br>
