They Fought for Each Other by Kelly Kennedy Book Summary

They Fought for Each Other presents a searing chronicle of the soldiers of Battalion 1-26 who confronted the worst neighborhood in Baghdad and lost more men than any battalion since the Vietnam War.

Based on "Blood Brothers," the award-nominated series that ran in Army Times, this is the remarkable story of a courageous military unit that sacrificed their lives to change Adhamiya, Iraq from a lawless town where insurgents roamed freely, to a safe and secure neighborhood.

Army Times writer Kelly Kennedy was embedded with Charlie Company in 2007, went on patrol with the soldiers and spent hours in combat support hospitals, leading to this riveting chronicle of an Army battalion that lost 31 soldiers in Iraq. During that period, one soldier threw himself on a grenade to save his friends, a well-liked first sergeant shot himself to death in front of his troops, and a platoon staged a mutiny. The men of Charlie 1-26 would earn at least 95 combat awards, including one soldier who would go home with three Purple Hearts and a lost dream. This is a timeless story of men at war and a heartbreaking account of American sacrifice in Iraq.

A great tribute to extraordinary soldiers. Having been in Iraq myself and knowing the areas that are discussed, this is quite a detailed book that sent me on a trail of memories of my own experiences. Veteran and civilians alike need to read this, as I feel it is a great tribute to those who have given their all.

I wish.... I have read this book multiple times and each time it has moved me and taught me things that I may not have caught onto the first few times. I really wish they could put this book on an audiobook format. This is definitely something more people should read!

Eye Opening. This is a military book written for everyone. It really the reader a better understanding of what these soldiers went through, and what war is really like. There is no politics, no agenda, and it is written very clearly without too much military jargon. Thank you Ms. Kennedy for getting this story out there.

Good concept, a difficult story line to follow. Very good at taking you there, to understand the conditions of battle... the limitations imposed on the troops. Very hard to follow the sequence of events and the aftermath effects.

Proud. My cousin is in this book and not all is accurate but without a doubt I thank everyone for their service. Disappointed that no photos were included like the actual hard copy. I had to purchase it from amazon to see the photos. This was a little hard to follow (kinda badly written) and disappointed that the author did not list or thank each and every soldier in this unit. However I gave 4 stars because it got the story out even if it was not all the way it exactly happened.
