Hi, Nicholas Kulish:

I’m a former AP reporter & longtime freelancer (Time, Business Week & others) who just moved back to Berlin, after covering the fall of the wall in 89-90.

I admire your work & would like to sit down & trade notes, if you have the chance.

All best,
Topper Sherwood

hi.
If you have any extra time, could I ask you some questions about how you ended up working in the position you do? I’m a college student, I speak German, and I’m really interested in figuring out how to move to Germany at some point while pursuing a career I enjoy.

So you have my email now–contact me please if you get the chance.
Thanks!

This is weird, but speaking of time travel (particularly 1998) I just had to write. Congratulations on your novel - I look forward to reading it. I’ve only met you twice but I was once the girlfriend of your friend Nels, and I just want to say that I am certain he would be so proud of what you have achieved. You are living a life much like the one he might have made for himself, if he’d had more time. And as he would have said, Godspeed.

Terrific book, finished it in (almost) one sitting and couldn’t put it down.
Very moving to read an account by someone who got under the skin of Operation Iraqui Freedom one marine at a time. Would be surprised if the experience didn’t also get under yours…lifechanging? congrats!

Comment on ALERT - Everything in Order? by Alan Emmins

I had the same thing and had to engage in a bit of flitting back and forth. It did not take anything away from the book however. Thoroughly enjoyed it on many levels. Jimmy is a character you can’t help but fall for.

My wife even commented on how much I was laughing while reading ‘Last One In’. I’d been reading Anna Karenina, Crime & Punishment and We before this, so not much to laugh about there. Last One In was clearly what I needed.

My copy had no missing pages, but about 30 pages, from page 153 to 186, were out of order. Made for some alert reading in that section!

LOVED the book! You have combined some serious eyewitness reporting on both the daily life of typical Marine enlistees (and probably Army as well) during the invasion and the first weeks of the Occupation with some telling vignettes of how the beginning of the occupation must have seemed to these enlistees and an embedded reporter, and wrapped it in a comic tale that was hard to put down (even with 30 pp. out of order). Bravo!
