I extend my personal gratitude to you for your distinguished and steadfast service to our country. Great book.- Donald J. Trump, president of the United States of AmericaOur American warriors are the best the world has ever known; their commitment to being the guardians of our republic is exceptional. However, there are times when these men and women are in need of support.An Unfair Advantage is the personal story of one warrior, US Marine Corps Special Operator and Force Reconnaissance member Chad Robichaux. Chad is the pure embodiment of a modern-day Spartan, and he has the résumé to prove it, from the battlefields of Afghanistan to the ring of combat as a mixed martial arts (MMA) champion. However, the outward warrior hid an inner pain, a hurt that could not be filled with the prescriptions of the secular world. Chad tried worldly means to heal himself from post-traumatic stress and failed. This walking man of steel was being weakened by the kryptonite that almost ended his marriage and his life. Then Chad found the real antidote, the power of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ with whom we can do all things. Chad's victory led him to establish the Mighty Oaks Warrior Foundation that heals warriors with the blessings of allowing Jesus Christ into their lives, and they have not lost a warrior. AnUnfair Advantage is a must-read to give evidence of the real battle, the unseen enemy our troops face. Yet, regardless, it gives witness that the full armor of God is the best means by which our warriors can win on the spiritual battlefield. It is not about another policy, just trusting in a Savior who has overcome it all (John 16:33). --- Allen B. West, US Army Lt. Colonel (ret.); member of the 112th US CongressGod is the Creator. He made warriors. He made men. He made them with a purpose. If you don't find that purpose, you'll be as unfulfilled as if you're trying to use a screwdriver for a shovel or a hammer for a mop. AnUnfair Advantage helps men and warriors find the very purpose for which they were created.- David Barton, New York Times best-selling author;Time magazine's Top 25 Most-Influential EvangelicalsAn Unfair Advantage is a must-read. I served as a United States marine for 36 years. It was truly an honor to serve with warriors like Chad Robichaux. Chad's personal experience with post-traumatic stress (PTS) after returning from combat is something that many warriors who've seen the horrors of combat can relate to. Chad's personal story will touch many warriors experiencing PTS and their families. It is my sincere hope that Chad's story of the power of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, who led him to victory, will touch other great warriors and their families going through the ''horrors of combat'' and lead them to victory on the spiritual battlefield. Chad's book is an example of Joshua 1:9. ''Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.'' This book will be a blessing to others! --- Sergeant Major Carlton Kent, 16th Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps (ret.)Every boy dreams of being a hero. When boys become men, success is what they pu
