Praise for Saving Aziz
From my depths of sadness and frustration about the war in Afghanistan, I saw the best of the American people as they gave their time, resources, and some, like Chad, risked it all to do the right thing and help our allies that sacrificed so much to assist us in our time of need. This is the story of why America remains the beacon of hope for the world.

More than a memoir, it is ultimately a story of purpose and redemption rooted in Chads tenacious loyalty. It will leave you disappointed in Americas leadership but proud to be an American. By books end you will walk away with another, somewhat unexpected, feelinghope.

Saving Aziz is a must-read for those who are longing to know if human goodness and sacrificial love still exist in our world today. One of the best command decisions I made in my humbling thirty-seven-year career in the Marine Corps was to favorably endorse the package that loaned one of our very best Recon Marine Sergeants to the Joint Special Operations community in 2003. Im honored to have served with Chad, to continue to support him, and to know him as a great American and friend.
