Publisher Description: In the book, Culture Shock: Veteran's Guide to Adjustment, a step by step plan is presented for veterans, especially combat veterans, to reacclimate into the general population. These eight chapters guide veterans in solving their issues and overcoming their obstacles. The key component in creating this book and ultimately giving it its uniqueness was not a subject matter education. Though Azali has a degree in business, it was of little use in the forming and completion of this book. The key to this book's power is the author himself. Azali is a combat veteran who dealt with adjusting from warfare to garrison and again from garrison to the general population. The author fought in Iraq with 2nd Infantry Division as an infantryman. He spent his entire tour in an elite Recon Sniper platoon. Azali's experience, along with those of other veterans, gave this book its touch of reality. Within the book there are also stories of real veterans who struggled with their adjustment and prevailed with use of the points and plan within this book. Ultimately, it is the author's real world experience and genuine care for veterans and troops that bring this text to life. |
