GUEST OVERVIEW: “Freedom isn’t free.” Americans are so familiar with this phrase, but few know the true sacrifice our soldiers make to keep our nation secure and to enforce freedom throughout the world. Benjamin Sledge, author of the new book Where Cowards Go To Die (Regnery, July 5), realized this harsh reality after the 9/11 attacks destroyed his idealistic dreams of Army life and transported him to the front lines in Afghanistan. Scarred by the reality of death on the battlefield, Sledge reenlisted and served a tour in Ramadi, Iraq which spurred an unexpected brotherhood with the soldiers around him and an eventual readaptation to civilian life. This Independence Day, discover the reality of our precious American freedoms through a soldier’s eyes, including: ● The reality of battle and loss of comrades on the front lines of Afghanistan ● The pain veterans of the War on Terror felt after Biden’s catastrophic withdrawal from Afghanistan ● A picture of war unlike other memoirs—revealing the darker side of combat and the brutal truth of how depraved men can act instead of solely a heroic and rated-PG account ● Sledge’s own decades-long search for faith and how he found it through the most unlikely of circumstances.
