In the Company of Heroes
A True Story by Michael J. Durrant, Chief Warrant Officer 4 (Ret.)
with Steven Hartov

His battered face appeared on the cover of Time,
Newsweek, and U.S. News & World Report to the shock and horror
of all Americans. Black Hawk pilot Mike Durant was shot down and taken
prisoner during America's biggest firefight since the Vietnam War. Published

account at last tells the world about Durant's harrowing captivity and the
heroic deeds of his doomed comrades. And, as readers will discover, Durant
proves himself to be nothing less than a hero.
