Roughneck Nine One
by Frank Antenori


A powerful look inside a Special Forces A-Team and its dramatic and controversial battle against a huge opposing force in Iraq.

On April 6th, 2003, twenty-six Green Berets, including those of Sergeant First Class Frank Antenori's Special Forces A-Team (call sign Roughneck Nine One), led a battle against a vastly superior force at a remote crossroads near the village of Debecka, Iraq. The enemy unit had battle tanks and 150 well-trained, well-equipped, and well-commanded soldiers. The Green Berets stopped the enemy advance, then fought them until only a handful of Iraqi survivors finally fled the battlefield.
In the process, Nine One encountered hordes of news media and at the peak of the fight, a US Navy F-14 dropped a 500-pound bomb into the middle of a group of supporting Kurdish Peshmerga fighters, killing and wounding dozens. This is the never-before-told, unsanitized, unedited story of the fight for the crossroads at Debecka, Iraq, and a unique inside look at a Special Forces A-Team as it recruits and organizes, trains for combat, and eventually fights a battle against a huge opposing force in Iraq.

SFC FRANK ANTENORI, U.S. Army (Ret.) joined the Special Forces in 1988. Since then, he has participated in numerous operations in over thirty-four countries and has been awarded numerous decorations and citations, with seven received for combat actions.

HANS HALBERSTADT has authored or co-authored more than fifty books, most on military subjects, especially U.S. special operations forces, armor, and artillery. He served in the U.S. Army as a helicopter door gunner in Vietnam.

I'll be doing the talk show and book signing circuit from 25 May to 15 June promoting the book.The press release is supposed to have a teaser; I'll ask my publisher if I can post it here first to give you guys a taste of what's in store for the rest of the book.Ft Bragg may be where we debut the book on Tues aftercMemorial Day, the day before you can buy it anywhere else. The publicist for the publisher is looking at a couple of other places though so Bragg is not a lock. It will be on the tour though. Also, it looks like we’ll be in Tampa for SOF week 19-23 June giving away free copies to all active duty SOF that want one (while supplies last). I'll put a couple to the side for my fellow Army comrades, because I'm betting those Air Force guys at MacDill, will try to scarf them up.You guys beat me to the punch, I was planning on posting the schedule when I announced the debut of the book, but unfortunately we’re still a couple months out from finalizing everything.
