A Few Bad Men is a book which recounts the formation of the Marine Special Operations Command's first Special Operations Task Force to deploy to combat in Afghanistan. Seven Marines (the MARSOC 7) were falsely accused of mass murder, a war crimes trial occurred for 3.5 weeks and four months later the Convening Authority quietly released a Friday night news dump statement to softly sum up that the Marines had not murdered civilians. This story includes the declassified sworn testimony from the trial which was unlawfully used to protect senior officers' testimonies and actions from the media and the American public. This is the first time that the full account of the history, combat actions, trial and aftermath have been published in one location. Order your copy through the above Amazon.com link today.
