From Wikipedia: "Colonel David Haskell Hackworth November 11 1930 to May 4 2005 also known as "Hack" was a highly decorated soldier having received 24 decorations for heroism in combat from the Army Commendation Medal to the Distinguished Service Cross. He was also a prominent military journalist. During his time as a journalist Hackworth investigated many subjects including an assertion into the accused improper wearing of ribbons and devices by Admiral Mike Boorda an investigation which is speculated to have driven Boorda to committing suicide. Hackworth is also known for his role in the creation and command of Tiger Force a military unit formed during the Vietnam War to apply guerrilla warfare tactics to the fight against Vietnamese guerrillas." In January 1969 one of the most promising young lieutenant colonels the US Army had ever seen touched down in Vietnam for his second tour of duty which would turn out to be his most daring and legendary. David H. Hackworth had just completed the writing of a tactical handbook for the Pentagon and now he had been ordered to put his counterguerilla-fighting theories into action. He was given the morale-drained 4/39th-a battalion of draftees suffering the Army's highest casualty rate. Hackworth's inventive and inspired leadership quickly turned the 4/39th into Vietnam's valiant and ferocious Hardcore Recondos. Drawing on interviews with soldiers from the Battalion conducted over the past decade by his partner and coauthor Eilhys England Hackworth takes readers along on their sniper missions ambush actions helicopter strikes and inside the quagmire of command politics. With Steel My Soldiers' Hearts Hackworth places the brotherhood of the 4/39th into the pantheon of our nation's most heroic warriors. Rugged Land LLC hardcover
