Maj. Gen. David T. Zabecki, editor of Vietnam magazine and author of several military history books, served as an infantry rifleman in Vietnam. After earning his commission, he was an operations officer, intelligence officer, and a chief of staff. In 2003 he was the senior security adviser on the U.S. co-ordinating and Monitoring Mission in Israel. He lives in Germany.
This memoir is arguably the best of its genre: objectively
presented, seeking explanations as opposed to assigning blame,
eschewing the backbiting and recriminations that increasingly
permeated the German high command as defeat loomed ever larger."" -
Michael Neiberg, author of Dance of the Furies: Europe and the
Outbreak of World War I
""David Zabecki brings a lifetime of real military experience as
well as deep understandings of Germany, command, staff work, and
World War I, among other themes contained herein. He has worked in
the archives at Freiburg more often than probably any other
non-German and can therefore put Lossberg into his widest
historical context."" - Dennis Showalter, author of Instrument of
War: The German Army 1914 - 18
