Summary "After Combat introduces readers to the wars fought by Millennials from the perspective of the combatants. Told by veterans, After Combat narrates what Tim O'Brien calls a "true war story:" one without obvious purpose or moral imputation, independent of civilian logic, propaganda goals, and even peacetime convention"-- Provided by publisher.
