Lt. General Mike DeLong, deputy commander of the U.S. Central Command during the Afghanistan and Iraq wars, was second only to General Tommy Franks in conducting the war on terror. From his vantage point at the center of discussions between President Bush, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, and Tommy Franks, General DeLong offers the frankest and most authoritative look yet inside the wars--how we prepared for battle, how we fought, how we toppled two regimes--and what's happening now on these two crucial fronts. DeLong made a significant retort of those critical of having a more streamlined, technological force in a recent New York Times op ed and on CNN. This book builds on his argument: in war, expect the unexpected. Mistakes will be made, and no amount of war-gaming can create instant harmony and peace in a region that has never known it.
