I just finished a very interesting read on the Private Security Companies that are operating in Iraq, Afghanistan and other countries around the world. Licensed to Kill takes a very objective look at companies like Blackwater who provide security to diplomats and companies operating in dangerous theaters.
I think after reading this book you will see the reality of a contractor’s life, the desire to serve their country and the unbelievable amounts of money that are at stake. I appreciate Pelton’s objectivity in the book. If you have ever wanted to go along on a contractor’s ride, this book will give you that inside look.
Here’s a link to Amazon.
