Shortly after the 9/11 attacks, three brothers by blood became brothers in arms when each volunteered to defend their country. No military family has sacrificed more during the ensuing war, which has become the longest ever fought by America's armed forces. While serving in Afghanistan, US Navy SEAL veteran and CIA contractor Jeremy Wise was killed in an al Qaeda suicide bombing that devastated the US intelligence community. Less than three years later, US Army Green Beret sniper Ben Wise was fatally wounded after volunteering for a dangerous assignment during a firefight with the Taliban. Ben was posthumously awarded the Silver Star, while Jeremy received the Intelligence Star--one of the rarest awards bestowed by the U.S. government--and also a star on the CIA's Memorial Wall. United States Marine Corps combat veteran Beau Wise is the only known American service member to be pulled from the battlefield after losing two brothers in Afghanistan. Told in Beau's voice, Three Wise Men is an American family's historic true story of service and sacrifice"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Wise, Beau, $d 1984- 600 10 $a Wise, Benjamin B., $d 1977-2012. 600 10 $a Wise, Jeremy J., $d 1974-2009. 650 0 $a Afghan War, 2001- $v Biography. 610 10 $a United States. $b SEALs $b SEALs $v Biography. 610 10 $a United States. $b Special Forces $b Special Forces $v Biography. 610 10 $a United States. $b Battalion, 1st $b Marine Division, 3rd. $b Battalion, 1st $v Biography. 650 0 $a Iraq War, 2003-2011 $v Biography. 650 0 $a Families of military personnel $z Arkansas $x History $y 21st century. 600 30 $a Wise family. 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Sileo, Tom, $e author. 941 $a 35 952 $l SFPH074 $d 20240716031919.0 952 $l DPPE403 $d 20240611020943.0 952 $l HQPD845 $d 20240516015032.0 952 $l ETPD745 $d 20231025011429.0 952 $l LEPI975 $d 20231006012929.0 952 $l DNPA403 $d 20230909010558.0 952 $l RNPC397 $d 20230805012506.0 952 $l WBPB115 $d 20230209023840.0 952 $l YWPD162 $d 20220922010131.0 952 $l FXPH314 $d 20220909063958.0 952 $l WAPD715 $d 20220203164728.0 952 $l WHPE115 $d 20211214011153.0 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20211020011006.0 952 $l TXPC862 $d 20210929010745.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20210803010318.0 952 $l NYPE343 $d 20210731010448.0 952 $l YMPD532 $d 20210729012057.0 952 $l ZNPA437 $d 20210723015118.0 952 $l GEPG771 $d 20210722064408.0 952 $l OEPC877 $d 20210720141255.0 $m B Wis 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20210713013808.0 952 $l EZPE755 $d 20210626010420.0 952 $l RFPC397 $d 20210603010733.0 952 $l YSPD232 $d 20210601010840.0 952 $l VZPB964 $d 20210525010941.0 952 $l CIPB482 $d 20210504011441.0 952 $l VSPC034 $d 20210406021531.0 952 $l YTPG232 $d 20210402012755.0 952 $l FPPC224 $d 20210330011545.0 952 $l HRPE845 $d 20210302050057.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20210302015638.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20210212012354.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20210202014338.0 952 $l CYPF706 $d 20210202010158.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20210122010121.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7B3947405C7F11EBAF1B708A47ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
