The transformation that military members experience is one that lives with each veteran from the moment they arrive at basic military training until the end of their lives. Each experience is unique, and the unifying fact is that there is a change within each person who takes this path. Not every story is heroic. Not every story is a success. This is a story of one Airman's journey. The story told is not the glorified version of what most people assume life in today's military is like. It is a candid re-telling of an Airman's life serving the country he loved. It is about the adversity he witnessed and personally faced along the way. This book is about leadership and its failures. It is about the bully culture within our armed forces by the leaders who are legally charged with leading America's greatest assets, its people. Also it is about how the leadership culture is creating the perfect conditions for the suicide epidemic amongst active duty members and veterans. This story contains insights from the perspective of an unlikely overachiever that went to war with the Crab Mentality he was awakened to through the professional development he gained in the US Air Force.
