Produktbeschreibung
The Blood of Others is a haunting, brutally honest memoir of Kam Chocktaw-a Green Beret and former U.S. Army paratrooper-who survived the horrors of a government-sponsored genocide campaign in Southern Sudan during the early 1990s. This gripping narrative traces Kam's incredible journey from a child born with an intersex condition, abandoned in a shoebox and raised in a Catholic orphanage, to becoming a soldier who leads covert missions to rescue innocent civilians from mass slaughter. Told with raw intensity, the memoir reveals the atrocities committed by the Sudanese Genocide Squads and the helplessness of international bodies like the United Nations. Kam and her multinational team-including U.S. Special Forces, British SAS, and French Legionnaires-operate as "The Last Irregulars," risking everything to save over 100,000 Sudanese minority villagers from extermination. Kam writes with searing vulnerability about gender identity, rejection, military brotherhood, and the psychological scars left by genocide. She recounts her transformation into a ghost-like warrior in the desert, using knives and silence to exact vengeance, protect the innocent, and shepherd refugees through hostile terrain to safety. At the heart of it all is Eden, a German Shepherd combat dog, and a symbol of loyalty and grace amidst unimaginable suffering. This memoir is not for the faint of heart. It is a brutal yet beautiful testament to the strength of the human spirit, the moral cost of survival, and the sacred duty of protecting the defenseless-even when the world looks away.........
