The Long Way Home

More than 30,000 of us have served in military peacekeeping operations. Most books written on the subject portray peacekeeping service as the military authorities would like it to be - not as it really is.

"The Long Way Home" is a contribution to the UN peacekeepers' own story of their service -for better or worse.

The book gives a multi-faceted account of the service, including its dark side. When the history of the peacekeeping forces is written, this book must be included as part of the true story. Former soldiers surely will relate to the book and enjoy reading it. Family and friends, as well as upcoming UN soldiers, will also find it fascinating and helpful reading..

UN soldier about the book...

.....will be lying awake tonight thinking, and glad because it's the weekend, and I don't have to drag myself out of bed to go to work. I was taken back to some nights in Lebanon and some events in Kosovo…which are actually always inside of me.

Sincerely, Anonymous

"The shouting from the interrogation room began again. Finally, it was too much for me, and I moved in closer. Just had to see what they really were doing in there. I opened the door. Norheim had his hands tightly around the throat of the thin Lebanese and had lifted him up from the chair he had been sitting in. To the right of him sat Semb. He smiled when he saw me. The Lebanese was handcuffed and kicking his feet wildly. No wonder. He was being strangled. Norheim noticed that someone had come in, set the prisoner back down in his chair and turned his back to me.
