Cowboys Over Iraq tells the amazing story of leadership,
innovation, and initiative demonstrated by a brotherhood that was
forged in the crucible of combat during the invasion of Iraq. "What
does it take to fly and fight with America's Air Cavalry? That's
the story of Cowboys Over Iraq. You'll meet bold personalities
right out of a Hollywood movie. You'll be right there as Jimmy
Blackmon and his fellow Cavalry troopers track down and tangle with
determined foes. You'll experience the highs of triumph and the
lows of bitter loss. Most importantly, you'll see how and why Jimmy
Blackmon learned hard-won leadership and battle lessons in the
deadly skies of Iraq. Strap in. Hang on. Get ready to go hunting
with the Air Cav."-Daniel P. Bolger, Lieutenant General, U.S. Army,
Retired; Commander, 1st Cavalry Division 2008-2010 "A great read by
an exceptional combat aviator, leader, and writer! Jimmy Blackmon
captures brilliantly the enthralling story of the air cavalry unit
that was the eyes and ears of the 101st Airborne Division (Air
Assault) during the fight to Baghdad and throughout the first year
in Iraq-when I was privileged to command the division. He captures
vividly, as well, the courage, skill, and feel for the battlefield
of the gifted pilot and commander of the squadron, Lieutenant
Colonel Steve Schiller, to whom we turned repeatedly when the
missions were the toughest."-General David Petraeus (U.S. Army,
Ret.); Commanded the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault),
Multinational Force-Iraq, US Central Command, and coalition and
U.S. forces in Afghanistan
