Acclaimed New York Times journalist and author Chris Hedges offers a critical -- and fascinating -- lesson in the dangerous realities of our age: a stark look at the effects of war on combatants. Utterly lacking in rhetoric or dogma, this manual relies instead on bare fact, frank description, and a spare question-and-answer format. Hedges allows U.S. military documentation of the brutalizing physical and psychological consequences of combat to speak for itself. Hedges poses dozens of questions that young soldiers might ask about combat, and then answers them by quoting from medical and psychological studies. - What are my chances of being wounded or killed if we go to war? - What does it feel like to get shot? - What do artillery shells do to you? - What is the most painful way to get wounded? - Will I be afraid? - What could happen to me in a nuclear attack? - What does it feel like to kill someone? - Can I withstand torture? - What are the long-term consequences of combat stress? - What will happen to my body after I die? This profound and devastating portrayal of the horrors to which we subject our armed forces stands as a ringing indictment of the glorification of war and the concealment of its barbarity.Binding Type: Paperback

Hyena Proof
Color: Acorn - Large, Size: Large
I have an American Bulldog that would chew a brick if he didn’t have an alternative lying around. They won’t last forever (nothing does) but we’ve had two of these over the course of a year and for him that is nothing short of a miracle. And that is daily chewing like it’s his job. I highly recommend the Acornucopia for aggressive chewers with jaws like hyenas…so it’s probably great for your dog too.

Great Product!
Size: 5.75 inch (Pack of 1)
My dog is a chewer! She can chew through most chew toys in a day. This has been a lifesaver! She chews on it but has not been able to get any pieces off of it. It is Durable and she loves it! This is a great item. I intend to buy more like this. It is a great product!

Amazing toy for large dog breeds!
Size: 9.5 inch (Pack of 1), Size: 9.5 inch (Pack of 1)
My puppy Rottweiler loves this toy! Withstands her heavy chewing and really seems to soothe her! It’s very loud against the floor. She struggled a bit at first with picking it up but now it’s no problem. Highly recommend for big dogs

My puppy's favorite stick, high quality
Size: 5.75 inch (Pack of 1)
Perfect quality chew toy for my dachshund puppy. She will spend several minutes everyday chewing on this. It is the perfect size for her small mouth and it doesn't show signs of wear like most sticks do.

Durable
Size: 5.75 inch (Pack of 1), Size: 5.75 inch (Pack of 1)
Great buy would highly suggest for dogs that love to chew. I bout a large one for our 5 year old Husky and a medium one for our 11 week old puppy. Both are very intrigued by them and the puppy loves playing fetch with it. The only complaint I have is the size difference between the large and the small. I know measurements were given but the medium looks more like a very small stick. If you have a larger go with the Large size. Medium would really only work for smaller size dogs and pups
