It came quietly, through loss, silence, and the moment survival stopped being enough. What followed wasn’t another stunt or another deployment. It was something far more vulnerable: learning how to live without armor.

As a UH-1C gunship platoon leader and pilot in Vietnam, I can highly recommend Roger’s book.
