Called “everything a war memoir could possibly be” by The New York Times, this all-time classic of the military memoir genre now includes a new forward from bestselling author and retired Navy SEAL Jocko Willink.Whether he was fifteen years old or forty, David Hackworth devoted his life to the US Army and quickly became a living legend. However, he appeared on TV in 1971 to decry the doomed war effort in Vietnam. From Korea to Berlin and the Cuban missile crisis to Vietnam, Hackworth’s story is that of an exemplary patriot, played against the backdrop of the changing fortunes of America and the US military. This memoir is the stunning indictment of the Pentagon’s fundamental misunderstanding of the Vietnam conflict and of the bureaucracy of self-interest that fueled the war. With About Face, Hackworth has written what many Vietnam veterans have called the most important book of their generation and presents a vivid and powerful portrait of patriotism.

Best Edition About Face: The Odyssey of an American Warrior with FREE MOBI EDITION!



A American hero, who started from a broken family and rose to the top echelon of warrior/fighters in three wars, starting as a teenager. A hugely interesting read of his career in World War II, postwar, Korean War, postwar, then the Viet Nam War and the end. Tales of his courage, love of the Army and his failings, recounting his life with the US Army. A great story teller, who describes how he poured his life into becoming a leader who developed himself and his troops into the best units in the Army.As a Viet Nam veteran, I was particularly interested in that period of his career. I could relate to his criticism of the Army's leadership, supporting the troops thoughts and actions he expressed. My own experiences in country, and training some of those who followed me, furthered supported by my years of reading the histories written afterward have only increased my disdain for Army leadership of that period. Col. Hackworth identified that leaders who lied ended up believing their own lies, taking actions that were wasteful in lives of troops and civilians. It struck a very big chord with me. I fear that little has changed in the Army after 19 years of war in the Middle East. Postwar leadership always allows the real warriors to be pushed aside, advancing personnel to leadership based on their adherence to political machinations. So the Army is bloated by too many personnel not dedicated to war fighting or supporting warfighting. All trying to play down the wretched horror of actually fighting a war.
