The Fighting 69th : one remarkable National Guard Unit's journey from Ground Zero to Baghdad by Sean Michael Flynn - UA363.5 69th .F59 2007

"The Fighting 69th is more than a story about the impact of terrorism, the war on Iraq, or the current administration’s failures. It is the story of how regular citizens come to grips with challenges far starker than what they have been prepared for. Flynn’s dark humor, empathy, and candor make for a fresh look at who our soldiers are and what they do when faced with their toughest challenges." – Editorial Reviews
