Reprint. AnnotationThis Iraq War memoir tells of the experiences of two American civilians who walked away from their jobs selling "Yankees Suck" t-shirts at Fenway Park and in 2004 decamped to Baghdad seeking new opportunities. Surprisingly, the two college dropouts found work with the Coalition Provisional Authority, dealing directly with the Iraqi people on a daily basis. In the green zone, Jeff Neumann and Ray Lemoine lived intensely, helping as best they could during the day and letting loose at night. Their unique perspective gave them a chance to see the good, the bad, and the ugly of the American occupation, and they present unique insights into the rarely covered demimonde of private security contractors and other non-military personnel in Iraq. In this engaging memoir, Neumann and Lemoine are candid about everything, helped along by writer Donovan Webster.
