Inspired to serve his country after watching the World Trade Center collapse, Dexter is critically wounded by a roadside bomb blast at the hands of insurgents in Abu Ghraib, Iraq. His physical wounds push him to his limits as he recovers, but his mental and emotional wounds from the battlefield prove to be just as tough to overcome. A failed first marriage, medically retired from the army at 22, stripped of his identity as a soldier, and thrust back into civilian life, he has to construct a new life for himself.

A retired U.S. Army grunt, Purple Heart recipient, a conservative, Christian, former Border Patrol Agent and active police officer in Louisville, Kentucky, Dex gives listeners insight into his life as he shares his many experiences. No longer afraid to hold his tongue or hold back his true feelings, Dex discusses current issues facing law enforcement, veterans and America.
