"Wounded" is an eloquent, gritty account of the ordeal suffered
by injured American soldiers during Operation Iraqi Freedom. The
human elements of courage, love, fear, and sacrifice paint an
intriguing picture of the reality of war. Author Ed Hrivnak, a
flight nurse witness to the pain and suffering, offers a heroic
narrative for the reader. There are valiant accounts of battle
followed by the reality of life altering injuries, and how troops
support each other and persevere.
"Wounded" closes all gaps between the reader, the injured troops
in the field, and the medevac personnel helping them during their
darkest hours. The book offers a unique look at what it was like to
evacuate wounded at the start of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Hrivnak
wants the reader to fully understand the price of war. This
international odyssey transcends the casualty statistics forgotten
in the news. A wounded soldier is a human being who is vulnerable
and weakened. Those who care for them, at times struggling to
maintain life, are also scarred. These men and women are an
incredible source of strength, courage, and devotion.
"Wounded" completes Captain Hrivnak's original journal, featured
in the Emmy winning and Oscar nominated film, "Operation
Homecoming. "
