I am the first ranger to write a book about corps operations in a combat zone. I did this because over the years I have encountered many myths and misconceptions about what it means to be a huntsman and what Jægerkorpset is. Even my family and friends have a very vague idea of what my work is. I also think that the people of Denmark have the right to know about the efforts in the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, where their money is going.

With this book I will try to give as realistic and honest an assessment as possible of the events in which I participated . My colleagues' names, operations and place names have been changed. I intend to donate part of the profits from the book to the corps. Finally, I emphasize that the book expresses only my personal views, opinions and experiences. This is not the opinion of the Danish Army or Jægerkorpset.
