Editorial Reviews

"In this very important book, author Patrick Robinson shows how the culture of our military is imperiled by a high command that too frequently allows political correctness to trump honor and common sense.... I was shocked—as a Navy veteran and defense lawyer."—Ray V. Hartwell III, Washington Times

"If you are looking for a strong read, this is a no-brainer."—Sacramento Book Review

"Should be required reading for all military personnel today."—American Spectator

“Written in an even–keeled, reportorial style, the book tells a story...that certainly needs to be told.... Guaranteed to raise eyebrows and spark debate.”—Booklist

Kirkus Reviews, 11/1/13

“Robinson ably discusses the intricacies of military justice…Captures the folly and resource drain of the Iraq War…Should appeal to conservative readers.”
