Bob brooks (94 Ergebnisse)

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. In his inspiring book, Bob Brooks, having capped almost four decades in law enforcement with a twelve-year tenure as the elected sheriff of Southern California's Ventura County, has invited us into the private quarters of his heart to reveal a set of battle-proven guidelines that he kept on his desk, each powerfully verbalized in the language of the apostle Paul's short letter to the early Christians in the city of Philippi. Paul's counsel and Brooks' stories of their impact on his leadership style, and his life of service, suddenly seem tailor-made for today's challenges to anyone with huge responsibilities and tough choices that affect the lives of others. Brooks' writing style is both commanding and gently encouraging, sympathetic but pulling no punches. Leaders will find themselves keeping his book nearby to pick up again and again-to read and re-read-when faced by challenges that can wear one to weariness or timid responses just when assurance and clarity are needed. -James R. Wilburn, Dean, School of Public Policy, Pepperdine University.…

Paperback. Zustand: New. "A vivid, fast-paced, first-person account of the actions by US Army Rangers on the ground in one of the episodes in Afghanistan that best illustrated the commitment in the Ranger creed: 'I will never leave a fallen comrade to fall into the hands of the enemy.' An extraordinary-and truly inspirational-story of sheer determination, physical toughness, and mental fortitude, as well as a fierce desire to never let one's comrades down on the battlefield." -General David Petraeus, US Army (Ret.), former Commander of the Surge in Iraq, US Central Command, US and International Forces in Afghanistan, and former Director of the CIA "You need to read this book! Dr. Tony Brooks gives a first-hand account of the extraordinary lengths America will go to rescue one Lone Survivor. The sacrifices that Tony and his buddies made to rescue Marcus Luttrell and recover his fallen comrades will inspire anyone who reads Leave No Man Behind." -Jeff Struecker, best-selling author, pastor, and decorated US Army Ranger veteran of "Black Hawk Down" during the Battle of Mogadishu "A heart-wrenching story of one of the most important military missions of our generation. In his compelling story, Leave No Man Behind, Tony Brooks shows us that war stripped to its core is a human endeavor where young men and women are willing to fight and die for each other under a solemn code of cohesion and brotherhood that binds them." -John Spencer, Chair of Urban Warfare Studies at the Modern War Institute, United States Military Academy, author of Connected Brothers "A gritty narrative that combines a new perspective on one of the most disastrous special ops missions of recent years with a first-hand account of life in America's most elite light infantry unit." -Sean Naylor, author of Relentless Strike: The Secret History of Joint Special Operations Command and Not a Good Day to Die: The Untold Story of Operation Anaconda "Leave No Man Behind is an exceptional read that combines thrilling, you-are-there narrative with the introspection of a modern warfighter during one of recent military history's most renowned moments. It is an excellent and very important addition to the genre." -Ed Darack, author of Victory Point: Operation Red Wings and Whalers-The Marine Corps' Battle for Freedom in Afghanistan "An engagingly honest view of a young, middle-class American's journey from the golf course to the mountains of Afghanistan-and the realities of combat. As instructive as it is entertaining, Tony Brooks has captured both the pain and camaraderie of combat in an unforgettable way." -General Stanley McChrystal, US Army (Ret.), former Commander of US and Coalition Forces in Afghanistan "Leave No Man Behind is a crossover war story that will resonate across a broad spectrum of readers, from the combat hardened vet to the suburban soccer mom. Tony Brooks is the personification of the citizen soldier, your next-door neighbor who served his country with honor as an elite U.S. Army Airborne Rang.…
