AWOL: The Unexcused Absence of America's Upper Classes from Military Service -- And How It Hurts Our Country

As Kathy Roth-Douquet and Frank Schaeffer assert in this groundbreaking work, the gap between the all-volunteer military and the rest of us is widening, and our country faces a dangerous lack of understanding between those in power and those who defend our way of life.
