From the Canadian in charge of the joint military command in Kandahar Province in Afghanistan, this is the real on-the-ground story of one of NATO's bloodiest, most decisive and misunderstood operations: The battle of Panjwayi, the defining moment of "Operation Medusa."

This is a print on demand book and is therefore non- returnable. Over three billion people in the world have never heard the name of Jesus Christ.
