Colonel Dan Wilson’s story is a classic example of gross military injustice. His thirty-nine year career spanned the Cold War through defeating ISIS and everything in between from 1981 to 2020. He was a “Mustang” Marine infantry officer with eleven overseas deployments into danger zones, and multiple combat tours. Leading Marines during combat operations, he was repeatedly shot at, mortared, rocketed, even surviving a “friendly” fire incident in Kuwait, during Desert Storm. He also survived an improvised explosive device attack on his vehicle in Iraq, during combat operations in the second battle for Fallujah.

Colonel Wilson is one of the most highly decorated officers of his era. In July 2016, the week after Colonel Wilson was notified that he was being considered for promotion to general in the Marines, he was falsely accused of sexual assault. Three separate investigations were launched to find as much “dirt” as possible on Colonel Wilson. Six months into the NCIS investigation, another accuser reported that Colonel Wilson had assaulted her too. He was immediately put in pretrial confinement for eight months prior to his court martial, where he was convicted by a jury of cowards (mostly consisting of general officers) on one count of sexual assault.

The “jury” found him “not guilty” on fifteen of sixteen charges from his two accusers. Colonel Wilson spent nearly three years in three different military prisons (Brigs), before being exonerated by the Department of the Navy’s Appellate Court and released, but then forced to retire from the Marines. Colonel Wilson’s case was followed closely from the start by a watchdog group that spotlights corruption in the military.

This is what they had to say about Colonel Wilson’s wrongful prosecution: “The Marine Corps should be deeply ashamed for railroading an innocent man into prison! We have been observing examples of military injustice for over 50 years, but nothing, and we mean nothing quite compares to the abomination of justice that Colonel Daniel H. Wilson suffered at the hands of the United States Marine Corps…A great man who was stabbed in the back by his own people. What happened to Colonel Wilson should never happen to anyone!” MILITARYCORRUPTION.COM

Powerful Book

This is the second most powerful book I have ever read. The Bible is the first. I was motivated by how Colonel Dan Wilson survived and overcame the attacks against him. He is a true soldier of God and a great example of letting go and letting God. I am ashamed of the treatment he has experienced at the hands of those in the US Government. I pray God will bless and protect him and his family.

truly amazing story!

i loved the whole thing, from beginning to end, i have the privilege of personally knowing Colonel Dan and it made me appreciate the story even more, I would highly recommend it, it was captivating and kept me on the edge of my seat and had me teary eyed at the end.
