Jimmy F. Blackmon writes with a power and hard-hitting honesty that leaps off the page. He has the respect of the men and women of his brigade, and a command of the narrative to tell their story.

Pale Horse both honors and commemorates the service of this elite task force from the unique vantage point of the commander who led them in battle.…
