By Anthony S Farina

Book Overview

Angels in Sadr City is an eyewitness account for the deeds of the 4th ID, 1-2 SCR, 1-6 INF, 62nd EOD, C-CO 404th CA, TPO DET 1170, and 237 Engineers during some of the most ferocious fighting that took place during the War in Iraq. The area of Sadr City in which they fought can best be described as the Wild West with no saloons: an untamed city inhabited by 2.5 million people. These men confronted tough obstacles, faced danger and peril, came face to face with fear, and made the ultimate sacrifice to protect their nation. Enduring long battles and exhibiting unwavering leadership, these men de?ed the odds in combat and adjusted to a lifestyle that can best be described as the frontier and pioneer days of old when minimal equipment was used and creativity reigned supreme. These men are true pioneers of modern day warfare.
