520    Charlie 1-26 confronted one of the worst neighborhoods in 
       Baghdad and lost more men than any battalion since 
       Vietnam. This is the remarkable story of a courageous 
       military unit that sacrificed their lives to change 
       Adhamiya from a lawless town where insurgents roamed 
       freely, to a secure neighborhood with open storefronts and
       a safe populace. Army Times writer Kelly Kennedy was 
       embedded with Charlie Company in 2007, went on patrol with
       the soldiers and spent hours in combat support hospitals. 
       During that period, one soldier threw himself on a grenade
       to save his friends, a well-liked first sergeant shot 
       himself to death in front of his troops, and a platoon 
       staged a mutiny. The men of Charlie 1-26 would earn at 
       least 95 combat awards, including one soldier who would go
       home with three Purple Hearts and a lost dream. This is a 
       timeless story of men at war and a heartbreaking account 
       of American sacrifice.--From publisher description.
