Author Description

John couldn't believe his eyes as he tried to shield himself from the bullet racing toward him. He told himself it had to be a dream-but it wasn't. It was just the beginning of the hardship and humiliation that his fellow soldiers would inflict upon him. When an unexpected personal attack (In the Columbia Recruiting Battallion/ with duty in the Charleston South Carolina Army Recruiting Company Oct 1997 to Feb 2001) threatened John's military career, he had to draw upon a reservoir of undiscovered strength that his past experiences had instilled in him. John's story is the story of an American soldier who refuses to accept defeat, never give up, and will journey to hell and back in order to fight for the one thing his enemies are determined to destroy-his honor.
