An in depth look at Tim Kennedy's life from childhood until now. From Police Officer to EMT to Army & MMA to television & non profit organizations, this man has done it all. Painfully arrogant, selfish, a cheater, & sometimes all around asshole I'm surprised he wasn't killed in action. He's also honest, driven, goal orientated, family man, fighter, businessman, & it seems most of all, soldier. From his wild escapades in the Army rising through programs to his time in the martial arts world, Tim details his life's training, ups & downs, friendships & enemies. A heart wrenching look at his time in Afghanistan fighting the war on terror that you didn't hear about on TV. His fighting & martial arts career on his start and the people he surrounded himself with to his retirement. His adventures on television filming "Hunting Hitler" and missions to stop human traffiking. At current, the secret rescue missions as a civilian returning to Afghanistan to rescue Americans, interpreters, & Christians with Save Our Allies and business owner of Sheepdog Response, Tim continues the journey of his life. The book was an interesting read, but a little too long and detailed. Kudos to all of the people who have put up with him through the years!
