| Publisher Description: These proud Annapolis graduates provide a glimpse of the achievements of and contributions made by today's young service members, making a strong case that they are worthy of being called the next great generation. --Publishers WeeklyProceedings magazine, In the Shadow of Greatness is now available in paperback. The editors spent three years inviting their Annapolis classmates, the first to graduate after 9/11, to share frontline experiences. Tom Brokaw heralds the first-person anthology as a must read. The book serves as a platform for those unlikely to write about war and recounts real-world operations with humility and respect for those they served with, bringing deserved recognition to all veterans of this so called Long War. |
