Amid the chaos, Christian Hill is preparing to lead his Combat Camera Team on the British Army's first big operation of the Helmand summer, inching through the IED-riddled fields of the notorious Green Zone, very probably getting shot at. A captain in the Media Operations Group, his job is to promote the war to the British media and make it look like things are under control and getting better. This book reveals the inner workings and absurdities of the military s media operations in Afghanistan. A war memoir that draws on hundreds of field reports, it exposes the truth behind the headlines."
