OZ - Chronicles of Courage

OZ, Chronicles of Courage is the fourth of a series of books related to Jews in the military.

Historically, Jews are known and respected for their contributions to such fields as law, literature, medicine, commerce, education, and other professions.

One profession in the repertoire of Jewish accomplishments cries out for recognition: that of the military.  Throughout the ages, though small in numbers, Jews have succeeded beyond imagination in our country's armed forces. The last member of the military to receive the Medal of Honor (though belatedly and as the result of the Korean War) was a Jew. At least fifteen Jews have been Medal of Honor recipients.

OZ, Chronicles of Courage continues the transcript of informing the public of the Jewish contribution to the defense of our country. Many of those featured have received decorations for service and courage. A number have not. But all of them have been brave, courageous and dedicated. They have volunteered to serve their country, and most placed themselves in harm's way. And a number of the participants in today's War on Terror are highlighted.
