It Doesn't Take A Hero by General H Norman Schwarzkopf
Recounting his boyhood years in New Jersey, during the Second World War, and his unique adolescence spent in the Middle East and Europe that would later prove invaluable, the author offers a frank account of his life at West Point and his early disillusionment with the 'real' Army that nearly prompted him to leave the military.
An excellent book..important for what it says of the career that created a great military and international leader -- General Sir Peter de la Billiere
Norman Schwarzkopf was born in 1934 in Trenton, New Jersey. The son of a brigadier general, Schwarzkopf graduated from West Point and fought in the Vietnam War. In 1983, he was made a major general and several years later became a four-star general and commander of the U.S. Central Command.
