Publisher Description
AN INSTANT #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER FROM PRESIDENT TRUMP'S NOMINEE FOR SECRETARY OF DEFENSE
Real men fought for our freedoms. It’s time we fought for theirs.
Pete Hegseth joined the Army to fight extremists. Then that same Army called him one. The military Pete joined twenty years ago was fiercely focused on lethality, competency, and color blindness. Today our brass are following the rest of our country off the cliff of cultural chaos and weakness.
Americans with common sense are fighting this on many fronts, but if we can’t save the meritocracy of our military, we’re definitely going to lose everywhere else.
The War on Warriors uncovers the deep roots of our dysfunction—a society that has forgotten the men who take risks, cut through red tape, and get their hands dirty. The only kind of men prepared to face the dangers that the Left pretends don’t exist. Unlike issues of education or taxes or crime, this problem doesn’t have a zip code solution. We can’t move away from it. We can’t avoid it. We have only one Pentagon. Either we take it back or surrender it altogether.
Combining his own war experiences, tales of outrage, and an incisive look at how the chain of command got so kinked, this book is the key to saving our warriors—and winning future wars. The War on Warriors must be won by the good guys, because when the shooting really starts, they’re the only ones who can save us.
Customer Reviews
The Hard Truth
Sometimes reality is difficult to accept so Pete lays out case-by-case how the DoD, and in particular the Army, have got here. His recommendations for the next POTUS and SecDef are clear and concise. Here’s hope for the future.
Very distasteful
As a military member, this has very little insight into his actual military experience or THE military experience. It’s a book full of blaming other people for his failures. It’s disturbing that the SEC DEF doesn’t believe mothers belong in the military, it’s quoted in the book. Very disappointing.
Wonderful Perspective
Excellent perspective on where our military has headed and the solutions on how to get it back. I highly recommend this book!
