About the Book
You're driving a 68-foot long truck with 30 tons of cargo through a hostile fire zone. There's oncoming traffic and the side view mirror explodes into your face. What do you do? If you are Sergeant First Class B.G. Chambers, you simply keep on driving!
These, and other adventures, are shared in weekly emails home to family and friends during her 724 days of deployment. From the first fateful phone call that would send SFC Chambers to Southwest Asia, to the first days of medical care upon returning home, "Mama Mad Dawg" shares the often-lighthearted tales of an Army Reserve Transportation Company, as they live and drive the highways between Iraq and Kuwait.
