The Combat Paper Press is a small, independent press dedicated to printing, binding and marketing small editions of poetry, stories and anthologies relating to veteran's issues. Most publications feature combat paper, created from pulped combat uniforms. Contact info@combatpaper.org for more information and to discuss possible collaborations and book ideas.

I Hacky Sacked in Iraq by Iraq war veteran Nathan Lewis is the first volume produced by Combat Paper Press. It was released in a limited edition in August, 2009. The collection of eleven original poems and essays based on Nathan's experience in Iraq and the military is hand bound by the author and features a wrap around cover made from combat paper, paper made from the artist's uniform worn in Iraq along with shredded American flags and U. S. currency. A second edition was printed in December of 2009.

The New Citizen Army made in collaboration with author Greg Delanty was released in June, 2010. The collection of poems is hand bound, featuring covers made from combat paper. The May 11, 2009 edition of Publishers Weekly ran a story, "Combat Poetry: Swords into Ploughshares - and Paper", announcing the collaborative venture.

The Linen Series is a collaborative portfolio of broadside prints created during the travels of the Combat Paper Project in 2010. The linen pages are loosly bound in a trifold envelope made from military uniforms and a road atlas.
