"A unique insight into the war experience... a realistic picture of what it is like to serve in Afghanistan as a Marine combat logistician" (Small Wars Journal). When he joined the Marines, Jeff Clement was not a high-speed, top-secret recon guy. A logistician instead, he led combat convoys across treacherous terrain in southern Afghanistan through frequent enemy attacks in order to resupply US and British positions. As such, he and his vehicles were a constant target for the resistance, and each movement was a travail, often accompanied by thundering blasts as the insurgents paved their way with IEDs. Every step forward was fraught with danger, even as each objective had to be met. As a Marine Corps lieutenant, he deployed to Afghanistan twice and always found a learning curve, as men previously on the ground were more savvy, and the insurgents, there for the duration, were savvier still. The Lieutenant Don't Know provides a refreshing look at the nitty-gritty of what our troops have been dealing with in Afghanistan-from the perspective of a young officer who was perfectly willing to learn and take responsibility for his units in a confusing war where combat was not merely on the "front," but all around and looking over all their roads. "Finally, a readable, honest and gritty account of the dangerous, exhausting labor that keeps 'The Green Machine' going." -Bing West, New York Times-bestselling author of One Million Steps "One of the best war memoirs I've ever read . . . a moving, inspiring work, that's enjoyable as hell, as well." -Stan R.Mitchell, author of Gravel Road
