182 Days in Iraq, 2nd Edition
Phil Kiver’s real-life, moment-to-moment journal of his assignment as an Army journalist in Iraq is honest, irreverent—gripping and emotional one moment—a howl the next. Kiver’s journals are raw reaction, impression, and introspection. This, folks, is what it feels like to be Phil Kiver in this war in Iraq—missing home, lounging at one of Saddam’s pools, angry with the brass, witnessing the deaths of children and comrades, nighttime explosions too close for comfort, pasta with the Italians, toasting the fallen with the Ukrainians. It’s a delirium of experience with this journalist sorting through the rubble and smoke in search of the story that will one day be history.

Can't believe you guys are pushing such a loser like Kiver. Ask him about his OTH (Other Than Honorable) discharge sometime. Ask him about the time he was kicked out of OCS for lying. There's more...he's a slimy one.
Anonymous,
We are not pushing anyone. All we do here is bring the different voices we find to the table.
Any posting we put up here should not be taken as any kind of endorsement of the work or the author.
And as you must know, anyone can come along as you have and just say anything, and we have no way of judging the validity, nor the motives of such claims.
The reader is invited to look deeper before making any judgment. And that's why we try to bring in a wide range of voices, as war and peace are complicated subjects that do not always fit neatly between the lines
