"The modern-day Ranger Battalions, created in the wake of our Vietnam experience, were purposefully designed to change our Army. We learn from these stories that the Rangers succeeded wildly in this mission and changed the fabric of American life. This excellent book by Lawson Magruder, a personal mentor to me, and Fred Kleibacker illuminates the benefits of service to the nation and commitment to ideals more significant than ourselves. Read it and be inspired."
