“My story is some but not all of the events I encountered and was involved in. It is a view of things from a civilian who was a contract Paramedic on forward operating bases in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. I flew, walked and drove through both wars. I was involved with the military personnel and other contractors. I want people to know that civilians were there in close support of our troops. Some of us died there, some were injured there, and some do have PTSD from there. Most people do not know of how close some contractors worked with the military or the sacrifices we made. I have never seen anything on the civilian contributions and sacrifices in those two so-called wars. I take nothing away from those who were military, I give them accolades several times in the book." - Harold Wright
