Two brothers--Chuck and Tom Hagel--who went to war in Vietnam, fought in the same unit, and saved each other's life. They disagreed about the war, but they fought it together. 1968. America was divided. Flag-draped caskets came home by the thousands. Riots ravaged our cities. Assassins shot our political leaders. Black fought white, young fought old, fathers fought sons. And it was the year that two brothers from Nebraska went to war. In Vietnam, Chuck and Tom Hagel served side by side in the same rifle platoon. Together they fought in the Mekong Delta, battled snipers in Saigon, chased the enemy through the jungle, and each saved the other's life under fire. But when their one-year tour was over, these two brothers came home side-by-side but no longer in step--one supporting the war, the other hating it. Former Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel and his brother Tom epitomized the best, and withstood the worst, of the most tumultuous, shocking, and consequential year in the last half-century. Following the brothers' paths from the prairie heartland through a war on the far side of the world and back to a divided America, Our Year of War tells the story of two brothers at war--a gritty, poignant, and resonant story of a family and a nation divided yet still united.

My Green Notebook: "Know Thyself" Before Changing Jobs is a guided reflection developed to draw out your lessons learned and help you thrive as a leader as you take on positions of increased responsibility, regardless of your line of work. We believe that reading, writing, and reflection are the keys to self-improvement and development. This notebook is your opportunity to spend a few minutes with yourself each day for a month and examine your experiences so that you can better understand your strengths and weaknesses and, more importantly, determine your opportunities for growth. "The book is original, innovative, invaluable--a portal into the mindset of a leader and a guide for the rest of us in enhancing our own mindfulness and self-awareness." Steven Pressfield, Bestselling author of Gates of Fire and The War of Art "When you change jobs, you are expressing your values. You'll choose much more wisely and get much further faster if you slow down at this critical juncture and get explicit with yourself about your values. This book will help you get to know yourself a little better, so you can make a better choice about your next step." Kim Scott, Bestselling author of Radical Candor "An innovative and useful tool for the difficult, and often-overlooked, task of critical self-evaluation" General Stanley McChrystal, U.S. Army (Retired)
