Medal of Honor winner Staff Sergeant "Sal" Giunta's empowering
memoir describes a boy working at a Subway shop who was attracted
to an Army recruiting center by a free T-shirt, but left inspired
by the thought of making a difference to the world. After
enlisting, he was posted to Afghanistan, where he learned from the
seasoned soldiers of the 173rd Airborne Brigade about a totally new
kind of war. In 2007, while he was on patrol in the Korengal
Valley--the "Valley of Death"--his lessons on duty and honor in the
face of danger were tested. His squad was ambushed by Taliban
insurgents and pinned down under blistering fire. When their leader
fell, Giunta shielded him with his own body. Amid the chaos, he
continued to fight and protect his wounded comrades until Apache
air cover finally brought a halt to the action.
"Living with Honor" is a remarkable account by a man who insists he
was "just a soldier," but who has made the difference he dreamed
of. His candid, insightful tale is a moving testament to the power
of the human spirit.
