Book Synopsis
Major (retired) Darrell Menard is a Metis physician and Air Force
medical officer who is suddenly and unexpectedly selected to
be the Medical Advisor to the Commander of the Canadian
Contingent of NATO's Stabilizing Force.
As part of the team working to bring peace to war-torn Bosnia,
Major Menard finds himself woefully unprepared to work in an
almost exclusive Army environment and, it doesn't take long
for him to realize he has a great deal to learn in a very short
period of time. His seven-month tour is punctuated with
laughter, tragedy, joy, frustration, loneliness and teamwork.
In sharing his story, Dr. Menard hopes readers better understand
what Canadian Forces personnel experience when they are
deployed far from their loved ones.
