The Hills By The Wadi

By Danny Murphy

After meeting legendary corpsman and World War II veteran Greg "Doc" Emery, Murphy finds himself reflecting on the wars of two generations. A simple question from the older man pulls Murphy back to a pivotal moment during his deployment to Afghanistan. In return, Doc shares a stirring story from Iwo Jima, buried for 75 years.

This memoir takes readers deep inside the Marine Corps infantry during the Global War on Terror. With sharp detail and sincere honesty, Murphy captures the chaos, camaraderie, and harsh realities that define life in the Marines. From enlistment through two combat deployments, homecomings, and the reckless joy of time with fellow Marines, this is a gritty and unfiltered look at war, memory, and the bonds forged in both.
