I wish this were a joke. It ain't. The name of this idiotic book is Working in a War Zone: Military Contractors, and if you're so bold as to read a bit further you'll find this:
Interest Level: Grades 5 - 8
Reading Level: Grade 5
That's right, you can sit down with your 10 year old child, put on Hannah Montana and then transition into reading about how best to waterboard some Sunni insurgents you picked up on recon in Fallujah. Or better yet, how to misappropriate "funds" (see taxpayer dollars) while providing water to our troops containing with enough fecal contamination to give all of Utah amoebic dysentery.
Here is the lovely description of this tome:
People rarely think about the workers who provide products and services to the military and rebuild war-torn areas. The people who do these jobs, military contractors, have as important and exciting a career as anyone else in the military. This book brings readers right into the thick of the action. A variety of military contractor careers are profiled and brought to life. Readers learn about the daily dangers experienced by these professionals, and the importance of the work they accomplish.
Isn't that the truth! Undermining democracy, getting people killed, stealing vast sums of money and getting the world to hate us sure is important work.
On a related note:
A secret intelligence assessment of the first battle of Fallujah shows that the U.S. military thinks that it lost control over information about what was happening in the town, leading to "political pressure" that ended its April 2004 offensive with control being handed to Sunni insurgents.
I am guessing it was all of our faults that the Pentagon plans for war like Mitt Romney plans for vacation with the dog...

Homeland security, anti-terrorism, information technology, criminal justice and law enforcement -- these are some of the fastest growing job sectors. There are high school programs cropping up specifically tailored to the "$24-billion-a-year homeland security industry," as one article put it. Forget being a doctor or lawyer or engineer. Defense contractor is the way to go. (*cough*)
