'Colonel Shawn Walsh’s Proud to Serve stands alone as a rare, first-hand account of the invisible logistical war that makes combat possible.'-Brigadier General Anthony J. Tata, US Army, retired,national bestselling author of Brace for Impact'An exceptional officer’s account of the urgent response and long-term impact of the 2001 terror attacks.'-Rear Admiral John Palmer, US Navy, retired, author of From Bluegrass to Blue Water: Lessons in Farm Philosophy and Navy Leadership and George Washington’s One-Man Army: The Life, Legend, and Battles of Peter FranciscoProud to Serve is a firsthand account of leadership, logistics, and command responsibility at defining moments in American history. It opens in the chaos of the Pentagon after September 11, 2001, where a US Army officer helps drive response and recovery operations that alter the course of his life and career, leading to battalion command during Operation Iraqi Freedom.Told with professionalism and restraint, Proud to Serve reveals the unseen work that sustains combat operations. From building and protecting fuel networks in hostile terrain to managing risk under constant pressure, it shows how discipline, trust, and accountability determine success when failure is not an option. This is war behind the headlines, where leadership extends beyond the battlefield.Proud to Serve explores the human dimension of command. It examines the burden of decision-making, the resilience of soldiers and families, and the effects service carries long after missions conclude.When clarity is absent and time runs out, leaders still act. Proud to Serve enters the decision space where mission comes first, resources are scarce, and judgment replaces certainty. Every choice carries permanent consequences, and every decision must answer one question: How do you accomplish a near-impossible mission and bring every soldier home? 6
