Allegiance to God and Corps is a memoir that explores the life
experiences of Hafiz Naim Ali Camp, a US Marine who converted to
Islam when he was a staff sergeant in 1994. He shares sixteen years
of experiences, both positive and negative, as he took advantage of
the opportunity to meet diverse groups of people and to share
stories about their families and cultures. Of all the places he
visited, the two that had the biggest impact on him were Palestine
and Bosnia, because of the atrocities the people experienced under
the ruling forces that governed each of them. He recalls firsthand
stories from two Bosnian brothers who fought in the Bosnian War as
teenagers and who went on to become marines. Camp also talks about
his relationships and experiences with six military Muslim
chaplains-four in the navy, one in the air force, and one in the
army. All of these stories provide a vivid picture of what it's
like to be a Muslim in the US military, as well as the challenges
it brings each day. Finally, he writes about the tragic events of
9/11, Fort Hood, and the controversial Ground Zero Masjid incidents
that have had a devastating impact on the Muslim communities
world-wide.
