9 Rules of Engagement: A Military Brat's Guide to Life and Success Paperback -
by Harris Faulkner
From the rear cover
Growing up in a military family, Harris Faulkner revered her father, Lieutenant Colonel Bob Harris, a high-ranking officer, pilot, and avionics specialist in the United States military who served two tours in Vietnam. As a young military brat accompanying him from post to post, Harris experienced firsthand how success in life was rooted in the knowledge, integrity, and duty that came from her military surroundings. These formative lessons in leadership and work ethic became the guiding principles for her career as a journalist, eventually leading her to become one of the top anchors at Fox News.
In 9 Rules of Engagement, Harris uses her father's stories, his career, and the profound father-daughter bond they've shared throughout her life to explore nine life lessons--each rooted in military life--that have shaped her career and molded her as a person. Whether discussing how to "devise your mission," "stay ready," or "think like a general," these rules reflect a lifetime spent absorbing the military mind-set for success, while always keeping one foot in the civilian world. Examining the courage, determination, and patriotism that her father's service has inspired in her, Harris shows how his stories of combat and responsibility have been an essential ingredient in her rise through the ranks of national broadcasting, guiding her to her goals regardless of the circumstances. Along the way she interviews other military families, generals, and former and active service members now serving in the United States Congress to illuminate why the message and mission of the military is so effective at changing lives both on and off the battlefield.
Illustrated with sixteen pages of never-before-seen photographs of her father's service and her own life, this instructive and motivational guide shows the transformative power of our military's ideals, offering a fascinating exploration of how its most treasured values can help all Americans succeed while demonstrating the truth to the adage that, in military families, the whole family serves--together.Details
