PUNK'S
WAR
Punk's War is part adventure tale, part introspective
commentary. Written in the tone of the quixotic lieutenants
who populate its pages, the novel helps readers understand
the pressures on this new generation of warfighters. Along
the way an engaging cast of characters is introduced:
a self-centered careerist squadron commander hell-bent
on fixing his tainted professional reputation; a reluctant
air-wing commander more suited for life within the walls
of the Pentagon than on a flight deck at sea; a battle-group
commander reared in the art of driving ships, but thrust
into the snap decision matrix of supersonic jets; and
a host of junior officers. Seeking only the ideals they
were promised, these technology-savvy aviators are products
of pop culture, unimpressed by rank for its own sake and
unresponsive to petitions in the name of the profession's
lofty mottos.
