WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PUT A POET IN A WAR ZONE?

Role 3 is the highest level of medical care given to wounded US troops within a war zone. This book tells the story of one Navy Corpsman assigned to the Role 3 MMU (Multi-national Medical Unit) in Kandahar, Afghanistan. Hospital Corpsman third class Curt Last recounts his experiences working in multiple units within the combat hospital during US campaigns in Afghanistan in 2011.

The Aftermath of Experience

After years of letting the memories sit in his journal, working on regaining balance in a world changed by his experiences at the Role 3, Last committed to writing his story in the form of poetry. Holding to his personal beliefs and artistic goals, this collection is the culmination of years of the art bubbling and erupting to through a damaged surface and onto the page.
