=vThis is a tribute to all unsung heroes who have engaged in
the controversial entity called war.
Those whom I have met as I was writing this book,
Those whom I have never known,
To all those who have fought for our freedom.
The men and women who have come from the ranks of
civil society to fight in the wars that others created.
Those to whom history refers with the anonymous and
cruel word "troops, "
The soldiers in the infantry and those in the cavalry,
The men and women in the air and at sea.
