Summary
What was it like to serve in Afghanistan? That is the question civilians often ask returning servicemembers of the armed forces. "Afghanistan: On the Bounce" brilliantly conveys the full range of the troops' experiences--on patrol, in combat, in the chow line, and in religious services--through photographs, stories, diagrams, and removable ephemera. As a documentation/production specialist in Afghanistan, photographer Robert L. Cunningham accompanied soldiers of 40 different units on 132 combat missions, following them during their typical on-base routines as well as into hazardous situations. Here are detailed examinations of the servicemembers' weapons, uniforms, vehicles, and gear, along with reflections on duty, insights into valor and heroism, and clear-eyed humor about life on deployment.
