The courage inside them was immediate, personal, and often decided in seconds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book tells one hundred Medal of Honor stories from America's post-9\/11 wars. These are stories of soldiers, Marines, sailors, airmen, Rangers, SEALs, medics, leaders, and small-unit fighters who faced ambushes, grenades, burning vehicles, suicide bombers, rooftop battles, hostage rescues, outpost attacks, mountain firefights, and desperate rescues under fire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSome survived and carried the burden of memory. Others were honoured after death, their stories preserved by comrades, families, and official recognition. Together, they show courage in its clearest battlefield forms: shielding others, going back for the wounded, holding the line, entering the kill zone, calling for help under fire, and choosing another life over their own.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e100 Medal of Honor Stories from Iraq and Afghanistan\u003c\/b\u003e is not a full political history of the wars.
