The first earth Battalion
The U.S. Army's New Age Warrior-Monks and the Men Who Tried to Walk Through WallsBy Nathaniel B. Carver
Length1h 13m
About this audiobook
In 1979, a decorated Vietnam veteran named Lieutenant Colonel Jim Channon wrote a manual unlike any the U.S. Army had seen. It imagined soldiers as “warrior monks” trained in meditation, martial arts and New Age techniques, loyal first to the planet. His First Earth Battalion never officially existed, yet its ideas reached generals, intelligence chiefs and Green Beret training programs. One general even tried to walk through his office wall. Drawing only on verified sources, this book separates fact from legend in one of the strangest chapters of American military history.
