So far, "The Magnificent Bastards in Ramadi and A Father's Journey There" about the Battle of Ramadi and my 2007/2008 memorial service missions to Ramadi with Gold Star Dad John Wroblewski is coming along great. I've interviewed forty-two 2nd Battalion 4th Marines about their combat experiences during the Battle of Ramadi, 6 Gold Star parents, plus my recollections of the failed 2007 mission and the successful 2008 memorial service mission with John Wroblewski.
The book is already over 4000 pages long, so I obviously need to do some editing before it is published. I plan on publishing the book before Veteran's Day 2023. All profits will be used to establish a scholarship fund for the survivors of the 34 Marines killed-in-action in Ramadi during the 2004 deployment. If you are a 2/4 Marine, there's still time to do an interview! Please email me at gregjanney@gmail.com to set up an appointment to do your interview.
