Three Wise Men by Tom Sileo

Shortly after the 9/11 attacks, three brothers by blood became brothers in arms when each volunteered to defend their country. No military family has sacrificed more during the ensuing war, which has become the longest ever fought by America's armed forces. While serving in Afghanistan, US Navy SEAL veteran and CIA contractor Jeremy Wise was killed in an al Qaeda suicide bombing that devastated the US intelligence community. Less than three years later, US Army Green Beret sniper Ben Wise was fatally wounded after volunteering for a dangerous assignment during a firefight with the Taliban. Ben was posthumously awarded the Silver Star, while Jeremy received the Intelligence Star-one of the rarest awards bestowed by the U.S. government-and also a star on the CIA's Memorial Wall. United States Marine Corps combat veteran Beau Wise is the only known American service member to be pulled from the battlefield after losing two brothers in Afghanistan. Told in Beau's voice, Three Wise Men is an American family's historic true story of service and sacrifice.
SERGEANT BEAU WISE served on active duty in the Marine Corps from 2008 to 2016 with 1st Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment, 3rd Marine Division. He is the only known American service member to receive the Department of Defense's "Sole Survivor" designation as a result of the seventeen-plus-year war in Afghanistan. TOM SILEO is an author, senior editor of The Stream, and recipient of the Marine Corps Heritage Foundation's 2016 General Oliver P. Smith Award for distinguished reporting. Tom has written several books, including 8 Seconds of Courage and Brothers Forever.
