A new memoir by Toby James Nunn, reveals personal stories of the
faces behind the military uniforms as young men learn about the
Army and about themselves during combat in Operation Iraqi Freedom.
Nunn presents both his own experience as an infantry squad leader
and the experiences of the soldiers under his command. Northern
Disclosure is about their exploits, but it is also a coming of age
story. Soldiers mature quickly in a war zone, and it is not
uncommon that an inner struggle ensues, pitting their natural
humanity against an aggressiveness programmed by years of training.
Nunn follows his unit's progress as their training moves from the
U.S. to the desert sands of Kuwait before heading into Iraq for
combat. Nunn's unit was the first to train and fight as a Stryker
Brigade Combat Team. Northern Disclosure rides shotgun as Nunn and
his soldiers take the Stryker vehicle into combat scenarios in
Iraq. Readers will also be given a ground level perspective of the
middle stages of the effort to reestablish the Iraqi nation. Nunn
was one of the first leaders to face the challenge of training and
establishing local security forces in Iraq while dealing with the
cultural differences between his soldiers and the Iraqis they
trained and fought with. Northern Disclosure is a military and
human interest story that will appeal to readers who are interested
in a true insider's account of the war in Iraq.
