They fought for each other : the triumph and tragedy of the hardest hit unit in Iraq / Kelly Kennedy. by Kennedy, Kelly, 1970- New York : St. Martin's Press, 2010. Subjects United States. Army. Infantry Regiment, 26th. Company C.   Iraq War, 2003-2011 -- Campaigns -- Iraq -- Aʻẓamīyah. ISBN:  9780312570767 : 0312570767 Description:  318 p., [14] p. of plates : ill. ; 25 cm. Edition:  1st ed. Requests:  0 Summary:  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.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii Kai Public Library Adult Nonfiction 956.70443 Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 956.70443 Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 956.70443 Kennedy Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 956.70443 Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList Wahiawa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 956.70443 Ke Checked In Add Copy to MyList
