Aprašymas

An eyewitness account of the 1994 invasion and occupation of Haiti, of American soldiers employed in a strange war zone "where there are no friends and no enemies, no front or rear, no victories and likewise, no defeats, and no true endings". From the Pentagon's war room to the bitter infighting in the dangerously divided US embassy in Port-au-Prince and its on again/off again relationship with terrorists, Bob Shacochis chronicles what the military calls OTW (operations other than war). From his eighteen months in the field in Haiti, where he lived with a team of Special Forces commandos, Shacochis brings the reader the timeless stories of soldires, their exploits, their frustrations, their inner lives as well as their heroic deeds, as they struggle to bring democracy to a country ravaged by tyranny.
