"This book is about the labor required to sustain the U.S. military's various overseas operations, both recognized wars and clandestine campaigns, and the experiences of people from around the world who perform it. The military is profoundly dependent on a global army of labor that comes from countries as diverse as Bosnia, the Philippines, Turkey, India, Kenya, England, Sierra Leone and Fiji"-- Provided by publisher.
