 Rating:  - Such a ShameI am three quarters the way through `My Men are My Heroes', and I will finish it - but I am so frustrated I had to stop and compose this critique. Will this book EVER get to the actual reason the book was written.

Rating: - great story about a great guyThis is a great story about one of our marines. His dedication is so sorely needed in this country. A wonderful book on his courage to continue to live a normal life.

Read More Rating: - My Men Are My Heroes: The Brad Kasal StoryThis is a book about a living hero and yet he is humble. this book should be read by all, only then will you truly understand the war.
