There are thousands of printed pages of text in the updates I sent out during the 4th Infantry Division’s first year in Iraq (March 2003 to April 2004). I have broken it down into four books with highlights from each of the daily updates. Focus is the daily headline news, personal interest stories, and the most popular “What Our Readers Are Hearing From Their Soldiers in Iraq” section.

Book #1 covers January 20, 2003 to July 31, 2003 – the alert to deploy, delay from going through Turkey, arriving in Iraq, establishing themselves in Saddam’s hometown, and other challenges.

Book #2 covers August 1, 2003 to November 30, 2003 – looking for Saddam, helping Iraqi people rebuild their country, and learning they would be there a full year.

Book #3 covers December 1, 2003 to January 31, 2004 – the capture of Saddam Hussein and actions surrounding that, continuing the fight and rebuilding Iraq, plus preparing to return home.

Book #4 covers the end of the first year in Iraq, coming home, families and Soldiers adjusting to having their Soldier home, and the April 2003 welcome home celebration at Fort Hood.

‍Based on the success of Book #1, a true family heirloom, the next three will be available by April 2025. Order your first book today. Steadfast & Loyal.
