"In my personal opinion, Strozzi-Heckler hits the mark in
identifying one of the most troubling problems affecting today's
U.S. military forces: the ascendancy of technology at the expense
of moral values that underpin the true spirit of the Profession of
Arms. A must read for those amongs us who really consider
themselves warriors."
—Michael E. Haas, Lt. Colonel, United States Air Force; Head, Air
Force Special Operations
“What a story this is! Strozzi-Heckler’s chronicle of the army’s
daring experiment in awareness training for twenty-five Green
Berets is must reading for anyone interested in the role of the
warrior in a technological age. But more than that, it is an
illumination of courage and vulnerability and what it means to be a
man. I couldn’t put it down.”
—George Leonard, author of The Silent Pulse and The Ultimate
Athlete
“The Marine Martial Art program grew out of the conviction that
every Marine must be imbued with the values that have sustained the
Corps throughout its 227-year history—honor, courage, and
commitment. These warrior values are at the heart of Richard
Strozzi-Heckler’s work with the Marine Corps and the other services
to strengthen those who go in harm’s way in order to preserve our
freedom. In Search of the Warrior Spirit reminds us of how urgent
that task is.”
—R.D. Hearney, General, United States Marine Corps (Ret.); former
Assistant Commandant
"An exciting journal of discovery...Essential reading for military
leaders who want to broaden their ability to adapt to a world
characterized by ambiguity. Strozzi-Heckler's original work helps
readers link the important of mind-body-spirit integration to
cutting edge leadership in a pragmatic and thoughtful manner."
—Fred T. Krawchuk, Lt. Colonel, United States Army Special Forces
