So we are revisiting the Book:  Gods of War: The Legend of Blackhawk Company 1/23 Infantry

Gods Of War: The untold legendary story of the soldiers from Blackhawk Company 1st Battalion, 23rd Infantry Regiment. A part of the Army's first Stryker Brigade 3rd Brigade, 2nd Infantry Division out of Fort Lewis Washington. This story follows the unit from Transformation through their Harrowing, Anxiety-filled Combat Deployment to the Northern Iraqi city of Mosul during the early stages of the War in Iraq. Blackhawk Company would hold down Western Mosul almost single-handed while battling head-to-head against a very determined enemy in some of the most fiercely fought battles of the entire war. Overcoming tragic events on their first combat mission that threatened to cripple the unit before they even got started, When the dust settled, Blackhawk Company would go down as one of the finest Infantry Rifle Companies of Modern Warfare—a story of Valor, Heroes, Brotherhood, and Destiny.

Thanks again to Joe and Paul for coming on and sharing some insights before the book's release.
