Summary:
In a cheeky critique of the classic American airpower narrative, "Twelve O'Clock High," soldier-poet, essayist, and humorist Randy Brown explores what it means to be a leader or follower at war -- morally, physically, and psychologically. This book is full of insights into military life, as viewed through the lenses of war movies, history, and the author's personal experiences as a one-time U.S. Army-trained "lessons-learned analyst."
