Summary of Ray McPadden's We March at Midnight

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 I am an infantry officer right out of school, which makes me dangerous. I can make a mess with two-thousand-pound bombs. I am the terror of plastic targets. I want to destroy al-Qaeda, which is easy to demonize with their werewolf faces and medieval ways. #2 I was about to break the news to my wife, Elizabeth, that I was going to Afghanistan. She was shocked. She didn't want to go with me, but she knew I wanted to be in the fight, so she accepted it. #3 I was sent to the 2nd Battalion of the 32nd Infantry Regiment, which was deployed to Afghanistan's Kunar Province, next to the Pakistan border. Our unit would push deep into enemy territory and take the war into their backyard. #4 The first weekend in February, Elizabeth and I head to a bar in Sackett's Harbor, a town on the shore of Lake Ontario. It is like any other bar, except all the customers are military, and everyone is coming from or going to war.
