Book Tour Hard Launch

There is a video of the first major event for the book tour. It took place on May 12th in New York at The Half King, Sebastian Junger's bar. I met Sebastian in Chad a few years ago and I've appeared in some of his articles anonymously -- because I was still serving at the time. He offered me a chance to read as part of the bar's regular reading series and we chose to do it as our hard launch. CSPAN Book TV was kind enough to come out and shoot this video. The uniform of the day was jeans, a pink OCBD with a green Sid Mashburne grenadine, and my most comfortable Burberry blue blazer. I'm not sure the open collar thing works. Here's a screen cap: the video was shot in a bar, so it's pretty dark.
