Blackwell paints a provocative, brutally honest picture of a Global War on Terror infantryman.In his debut book, Blackwell explores the complex culture, complete with its own value system, of the American warrior serving during the Global War on Terror, known as "GWOT." The GWOT began after the September 11, 2001 attacks on the United States and includes the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq that followed."My hope is to immerse the reader in a vastly different society that values hardship, suffering, and deep, life-altering personal development over comfort and self-preservation," said Blackwell, who served in the Marine Corps for 9 years and deployed 6 times to Afghanistan, Yemen, Guantanamo Bay, and with multiple Marine Expeditionary Units. "Understanding infantry culture, and its values, is the key to establishing our legacy during the War on Terror as men who dared for more out of life. We sought challenge and adventure to gain critical knowledge of ourselves and became better because of it."Blackwell takes a close look at how America often generalizes its view of service members as robots, protectors, and nation builders. He challenges readers to examine their perceptions and ask critical, often uncomfortable, questions to discover the identity of this generation's warfighters and how the tenets of this culture can help enrich the American experience."ST pulls the curtain back to give readers an uncensored, no-holds-barred depiction of the life of a GWOT infantryman," said Chris Schafer, CEO at Tactical 16 Publishing. "His story is one that is sure to change your way of thinking and understanding of true American warriors and why this unique culture is critical to our country's survival."

Mother's Day: The Courage & Sacrifice of the 3rd Battalion 25th Marines. In his debut book, Cleveland gives a first-hand account of his time with the 3/25, in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. His book is one of only a handful written telling the unit's story. In 2005, Cleveland, a Navy Corpsman (medic), deployed to Iraq with a thousand fellow Reservists as part of 3/25, an Ohio-based Marine Reserve unit. After five months of relative quiet, enemy forces began launching attack after attack on the unit. By the time the battalion went home in November 2005, it had lost more men than any other single unit in the war. Forty-six Marines and two Navy Corpsmen were killed in action during the unit's roughly nine-month activation. "These young men weren't Special Operators or even full-time soldiers," said Cleveland, who served with the battalion from 2002 to 2006. "They were Reservists who in their civilian lives worked as teachers, nurses, police officers, paramedics, and Home Depot workers. This is a story about traveling from civilian to combatant in the worst possible scenario and back. My goal is to memorialize the men that I served with: who they were, what they did and what it cost them."Cleveland, a police detective in Ohio with 25 years as a uniformed officer, will donate all proceeds from his book to Feed Our Vets, a non-profit providing food assistance to veterans and their families. "Taylor's story is so emotional and engaging," said Chris Schafer, CEO at Tactical 16 Publishing. "His story provides deep insight into what happened to 3/25 in Iraq, and is a tremendous tribute to the men who sacrificed everything to defend our freedoms."
