Reviews
for On Combat
On
Combat is the latest and, in my opinion, the
best of Lt. Col. Dave Grossman’s
books. Many of you know Lt. Col. Grossman through his Bulletproof Mind presentations
and/or his previous work On Killing, which was nominated for a
Pullitzer Prize.
But what will set this book apart from anything else you may have read on the
subject is its sheer, raw power.

On
Combat is a superb book that is a must-read
for all warriors and all those they protect. In
other words, everyone. Thoroughly researched and
written by two warriors who have lived what they
write about, it has the same passionate and inspirational
style that characterizes the dynamic speeches of
Lt. Col. Grossman. You will learn the reality of
combat and feel empowered by the understanding
and skills you'll acquire to perform, cope, and
even thrive in any extreme stress situation. Do
yourself a favor: Read this book Now.

This
new book is what our young warriors need. At one
of David's last briefings a Senior NCO approached
me and said, "Sir, the army spent 18 years and thousands
of dollars teaching me to kill. This is the first
time I have been taught how to deal with it." This
book will allow those not fortunate enough to hear
David do their own preparation for the ultimate test.

Quite
frankly, it is an awesome book, the best available
anywhere on the subject. On Killing was
great, this is even better. As soon as it is available
it will be required reading at the PD and in my Army
units. You did us proud.
