Steve Macbeth - Author of No Names No Packdrill - Canadian Armed Forces Veteran,

Steve MacBeth, a three-tour Afghan war veteran, offers a compelling, first-hand account of Canada’s involvement in one of the most protracted and most complex conflicts of the 21st century. In his book No names no packdrill. Through vivid and unfiltered interviews with 150 frontline soldiers, this book captures the diverse experiences of those who served. These soldiers share their stories from the front lines of Afghanistan, detailing the challenges, sacrifices, and moments of camaraderie they encountered. The title, inspired by the military expression “no names, no pack drill”—intended to ensure lessons are learned from soldiers’ experiences without identifying those involved—reflects the humility and quiet professionalism of the Canadian soldiers, who are culturally uncomfortable with recognition for their service.
