Since retiring from the Armed Forces, Major-General Lewis MacKenzie has not stayed out of the spotlight but continues to speak his mind. In this straight-talking memoir, he traces his post-military career as an international commentator on military affairs, a consultant to the Irish government and a federal political candidate.
In Soldiers Made Me Look Good he answers his critics, including journalist Carol Off for her criticism of his handling of the UN mission in Bosnia. In a hard-hitting chapter, he discusses his professional disagreement with the leadership priorities demonstrated by Roméo Dallaire in the early hours of the Rwandan genocide. He continues his story to the present, to the first real litmus test for NATO”Afghanistan.
Divided into two partspre-1993, when MacKenzie calls himself a Cold War grunt, and post-1993, after his controversial stint in BosniaSoldiers Made Me Look Good is laced with anecdotes both funny and profound. It concludes with ten pointers on leadership, in which MacKenzie shares hard-earned insights from a life on the front lines.
Soldiers Made Me Look Good A Life in the Shadow of War eBook Lewis MacKenzie
MG Lewis Mackenzie told anyone who would listen on how it was no matter the situation. He was candid with the know-it-all politicians. He stepped on the toes of his Chain of Command not due to arrogance but because he had a job to do and that was to protect the soldiers under his command.He was quick to give all the credit to the foot soldiers because they did most of the work-Patrolling towns/communities, protecting the innocent, fighting the bad guy. He wasn't afraid if his chain of command had their feelings hurt he told it how it was.
He is a true credit to military men that served Canada and the World well. I look forward to re-reading his bio once I get back from my deployment to Afghanistan.
Thanks for everything,
