The Price of Freedom

On September 29th, 2010, Senior Airman Mark Forester, beloved son, brother and friend was killed in Afghanistan while attempting to save a fallen comrade. We hope that you find Mark's example a source of inspiration, patriotism and proof that heroes are real.

Mark was a member of the 21st Special Tactics Squadron, Pope Field (formerly Pope AFB) NC. His website is dedicated to all Combat Controllers as well as US Servicemen, both past and present. We are eternally grateful for their service and sacrifice and for the freedoms we enjoy.

Mark Andrew Forester - JAG 28
(May 15, 1981 - September 29, 2010)
“...No, I'm 30 meters to the east of that tree line standing in the wide open brown field all by myself like a big dummy.” - "My Brother in Arms" Ch. 11

05.25.16 - Mark's Biography - My Brother in Arms

Mark's book Free on Kindle thru Memorial Day

Beginning Thursday, Mark’s biography – My Brother in Arms, will be available for free download for five days. I chose this time because it’s Memorial Day. Normally it’s $8.99 so I hope many people will take advantage of this five-day sale.

Even if you don’t have a Kindle, if you have an iPad, you can download the free Kindle app and then you’re all good. I think you’ll enjoy the color pictures too.

An excerpt from an Apache aviator: “I have never witnessed such an act of heroism in my three years of fighting in combat. I have over 2,700 hours total time with 1,500 hours of combat time in both Iraq and Afghanistan…JAG 28 continued to advance on the enemy while taking intense enemy fire, and continuously fired his weapon in an attempt to get to his fallen teammate and destroy the enemy.”

You can learn more and download for free by clicking the image at top or link below. Oh, and don’t forget to leave an honest review on Amazon please. Thank you.
