圖書描述

I I WAS PRIVILEGED to know Lance Corporal Rick Eilert

stories, however important, will never be told.

of a crippling injury. The courage displayed in these circumstances was

often of the highest kind, combined in this case with the rarest and most

precious gift of all, the ability to laugh at oneself.

The opportunity to serve in the treatment and rehabilitation of men

such as Rick remains one of my most precious memories. I would like

to say to Rick Eilert and his comrades, on behalf of every American,
