About the Book
In 1988 an Army recruiter encouraged David Weill to sign up for his local Reserve Unit. One weekend a month, two weeks in the summer, extra money now, and benefits toward college. What’s not to like?
Weill went home and talked it over with his mother. It was a short conversation.
“Hey, Mom. Do you think I should join the Army?”
“No.”
