Votel, 13th Commander of U.S. Central Command and senior fellow of Harvard University__________________________________Author's Note from Grey WarsA lot is missing from this bookdeliberately.This is not the place to find out who first shot bin Laden or how that night ended in the Benghazi annex. This narrative does not peel apart the stories of American Sniper or Lone Survivor. It is neither an airbrush nor a whitewash. This book is not an expos.Instead, this book is intended for readers who seek a deeper understanding of U.S. Special Operations and the forces at the center of America's 21stcentury wars. Violence on behalf of the nation by sacred trust, sums up one military leader. Rings of sorrow, paraphrases another. While fighting matters evoke raw sentimentand rightly sothe focus here is on the everyday reality of national security, not the extremes.I set outand received authorizationto conduct this research across the interagency. Throughout, I adhere strictly to the classifications of national security and to the core values of academia to respect confidential sources and sensitive information. Upon completion, this book was reviewed in its entirety by the U.S. Department of Defense, Office of Prepublication and Security Review, and other governmental agencies.I wish to express gratitude to Yale University and Columbia University for a deep culture of interdisciplinary scholarship, and to Annapolis and West Point for a strong community of leaders. I am deeply appreciative of the University of Chicago, Columbia University, Harvard University, and Yale University for funding this work. I offer many thanks to Yale University Press for being a rigorous and exceptional publisher at every stage of this project.
