Heart of a Hawk


I heard about this book on the Glenn Beck Program. It is about a fallen hero. When he was 13 years old his parents got divorced, and his father had custody. His dad remarried *His step mom is the one who helped write the book, she was on the Glenn Beck show today* Anyways the kid got into drugs and became a heroin addict after his mom passed away when he was only 17. The guy was homeless and stole money from his parents. Finally at the age of 28 he came to his dad and said he needed help. This guy changed his whole life around and went into the armed forces. While serving in Baghdad, he had only 43 days left before he could come home, he saved the people he loved serving with him after being hit. Dr's don't understand how he possibly could have saved them because with his wound he should have died and not have the strength to fire over 500 bullets. He later died in his friends arms. I want to read this book really bad and thought some of you out there may want to know about it too.
