About Road Hunter in the Land between the Rivers

"We are but mere mortals. Not gods. Not angels. But men. It is in times like these when we must rise above our fears and endeavor to become greater beings." Deployed to Iraq in support of the War on Terror, a soldier embarks on an incredible, intense journey to return home to the loved ones he left behind. Sent as part of a National Guard unit to provide support, his convoy security escort team, Road Hunter One-Six, encounters extraordinary challenges as the insurgents shift their disruptive focus from the large cities and infiltrate the once peaceful highways of the war torn country. The author recounts many incidents of his team's convoy security escort missions and their patrols to include a tanker fire, truck rollover, sniper fire, hidden roadside bombs, disconcerted Iraqis, and a special security escort mission to retrieve the legendary British Army Black Watch from Fallujah. Includes the exclusive feature of the powerful, moving poem - Crystal Clear Blue Skies.

My Interests

About the author - James E. Lewandowski

Born and raised in the Coteau des Prairies region of northeastern South Dakota, I received a degree in business administration and became a healthcare administrator working with long-term care organizations in South Dakota and Minnesota. Receiving a patent for a handwashing signal for soap dispensers, I developed and marketed the product to the healthcare and food service industries. As a member of the National Guard, I deployed to Iraq in support of the War on Terror during 2004-2005 as a gun truck commander assisting in over 270 convoy security escort missions as well as numerous patrols. An avid runner, I enjoy spending time with my family, appreciating the outdoors, and continue to write.
