Medal of Honor recipient Kyle Carpenter is coming out with a book he says 'will truly help...

Thank you, my friend Lt Col Charlie Brown for making us aware that Medal of Honor awardee Kyle Carpenter is in the process of producing a memoir book entitled "You Are Worth It: Building A Life Worth Fighting For" coauthored Don Yaeger and Tiffany Brooks

"Titled You Are Worth It: Building A Life Worth Fighting For, Carpenter said he first met with coauthor Don Yaeger (as well as author Tiffany Brooks) in Jan. 2018 about the project and presented eight chapter ideas. Fifteen months later, Carpenter said, the book is a "meticulously crafted" memoir and self-help guide that "shows that big battles are accomplished by small victories."
Book aside, Carpenter's story of the heroic act that nearly killed him and his remarkable recovery is inspiring in itself. On Nov. 21, 2010, while posted on a rooftop in Afghanistan, Carpenter jumped on top of an enemy grenade and saved a fellow Marine. He nearly died from the grenade shrapnel, which tore into his face and body. He lost his right eye and many of his teeth, and has undergone dozens of surgeries since.
But after dozens of surgeries and years of rehabilitation, Carpenter has remained true to his word in 2014, in which he said, "I'm just getting started."

From the book's publisher:
What he has accomplished in the last five years is truly extraordinary: he's undergone extensive physical rehabilitation, graduated from college, ran three marathons, and embarked on a new career as a motivational speaker. And in 2014, he was awarded the our nation's highest military decoration, Medal of Honor, by President Barack Obama, making Carpenter the youngest living recipient of the award."
