In this vivid first-person narrative, a Special Operations Joint
Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) and his commanding general give
fascinating and detailed accounts of America's fight against one of
the most barbaric insurgencies the world has ever seen. In the
summer of 2014, three years after America's full troop withdrawal
from the Iraq War, President Barack Obama authorized a small task
force to push back into Baghdad. Their mission: Protect the Iraqi
capital and U.S. embassy from a rapidly emerging terrorist threat.
A plague of brutality, that would come to be known as ISIS, had
created a foothold in northwest Iraq and northeast Syria. It had
declared itself a Caliphate-an independent nation-state
administered by an extreme and cruel form of Islamic law-and was
spreading like a newly evolved virus. Soon, a massive and
devastating U.S. military response had unfolded. Hear the ground
truth on the senior military and political interactions that shaped
America's war against ISIS, a war unprecedented in both its
methodology and its application of modern military technology.
Enter the world of the Strike Cell, secretive operations centers
where America's greatest enemies are hunted and killed day and
night. Plunge into the realm of the Special Operations JTAC,
American warfighters with the highest enemy kill counts on the
battlefield. And gain the wisdom of a cumulative half-century of
military experience as Dana Pittard and Wes Bryant lay out the path
to a sustained victory over ISIS. For more information about the
