Description
Founded by former Navy SEAL Erik Prince in 1997, Blackwater recruited special forces veterans and others to take on the riskiest security jobs in the world. As its reputation grew, government demand for its services escalated and Blackwater's men eventually completed nearly one hundred thousand missions in Iraq and Afghanistan. Now Prince explains his original goal of building an elite center for military and law enforcement training and tells the story of Blackwater's rise and fall.
