Betrayal of Command: A Marine’s Fight for Honor in the Age of Hypocrisy

When loyalty collides with truth, leadership is tested not on the battlefield—but in the boardrooms of power.

Lieutenant Colonel Asad “Genghis” Khan, USMC (Ret.) was not born into the U.S. Marine Corps. He earned his place through grit, faith, and an unshakable belief in the values that defined it: honor, courage, and commitment. From a boyhood in the tribal mountains of Pakistan to commanding Marines across the Middle East and South Asia, his story embodies the American ideal—until that same institution turned on one of its own.

Betrayal of Command exposes what happens when courage becomes inconvenient. With the precision of a Marine and the reflection of a scholar, Khan reveals the hidden wars within the war—the moral compromises, political maneuvering, and quiet decay of accountability that corroded the integrity of America’s longest conflict.

From CENTCOM’s strategic war rooms in Tampa to the chaos of Afghanistan’s Uruzgan Province, Khan recounts how flawed assumptions, manipulated metrics, and careerism at the top cost lives and eroded trust. His is a firsthand chronicle of what it means to lead with conviction when doing so threatens everything you’ve built.

Beyond a war memoir, this is a moral reckoning—a rare insider’s look at the human cost of institutional betrayal and the price of truth in a culture that rewards silence.
