About This Book
In 1979 a secret unit was established by the most gifted minds within
the U.S. Army. Defying all known accepted military practice -- and
indeed, the laws of physics -- they believed that a soldier could adopt
a cloak of invisibility, pass cleanly through walls, and, perhaps most
chillingly, kill goats just by staring at them.
Entrusted with defending America from all known adversaries, they were
the First Earth Battalion. And they really weren't joking. What's more,
they're back and fighting the War on Terror.
With firsthand access to the leading players in the story, Ronson traces
the evolution of these bizarre activities over the past three decades
and shows how they are alive today within the U.S. Department of
Homeland Security and in postwar Iraq. Why are they blasting Iraqi
prisoners of war with the theme tune to Barney the Purple Dinosaur? Why
have 100 debleated goats been secretly placed inside the Special Forces
Command Center at Fort Bragg, North Carolina? How was the U.S. military
associated with the mysterious mass suicide of a strange cult from San
Diego? The Men Who Stare at Goats answers these and many more questions.
