{"product_id":"9781455516254","title":"Dog Company: A True Story of American Soldiers Abandoned by Their High Command","description":"The Army does not want you to read this book. It does not want to advertise its  detention system that coddles enemy fighters while putting American soldiers at risk. It  does not want to reveal the new lawyered-up Pentagon war ethic that prosecutes U.S. soldiers and  Marines while setting free spies who kill Americans.This very system ambushed Captain Roger Hill and his men.Hill,  a West Point grad and decorated combat veteran, was a rising young officer who had always followed the letter of  the military law. In 2007, Hill got his dream job: infantry commander in the storied 101st Airborne. His new unit,  Dog Company, 1-506th, had just returned stateside from the hell of Ramadi. The men were brilliant in combat but unpolished at home, where paperwork and inspections filled their days.With tough love, Hill and his First Sergeant, an old-school former drill instructor  named Tommy Scott, turned the company into the top performers in the battalion. Hill and Scott then led Dog Company into combat  in Afghanistan, where a third of their men became battlefield casualties after just six months.  Meanwhile, Hill found himself at war with his own battalion commander, a charismatic but difficult man who threatened to relieve Hill  at every turn. After two of his men died on a routine patrol, Hill and a counterintelligence  team busted a dozen enemy infiltrators on their base in the violent province of Wardak. Abandoned by his high command,  Hill suddenly faced an excruciating choice: follow Army rules the way he always had, or damn the rules to his own destruction and protect  the men he'd grown to love.","brand":"Center Street","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47134951670000,"sku":"9781455516254","price":13.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781455516254_p0.jpg?v=1769908850","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781455516254","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
