"Skillfully woven into a cohesive whole, these stories present an entirely realistic view of what happens when a Marine company arrives in an Afghan village where Taliban fighters have been reported. They're forced to deal with all the anguish and confusion and courage and hard decisions I can recall from my own combat experiences more than a half century ago."
-- Dick Price, Hollywood Progressive

"Extremely powerful, sad, and devastating truth has been told in We Got Your Six."
