Lt. Col. Tim Maxwell prided himself on being a hard-core Marinea patriotic Devil Dog on his third head to of Iraq. Then his brain was shredded with mortar shrapnel. Today, Maxwell has a sizable angry scar tissue on the remaining side of his brain. He forgets words, his wife has to read to him, and he drags one feet when he walks. Yet he works 12-hour days and nights as commander of the Wounded Warrior Barracks at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina. For these warriors, Iraq and Afghanistan won't quite maintain the past. Plus the have difficulty never ends. Other stories in Wounded Warriors depict life inside an L.A. crack gang, ex-pat Vietnam Warfare veterans in Thailand, and five days and nights in NEVADA with golf ball anti-hero Kobe Bryant, all of it captured stylishly by the writer who may have been called the "beat poet of American journalism".
