Book description
A shattering novel of courage, heroism, and unbreakable bonds forged
in the heat of battle.
Green Beret Captain Finn McCulloden and his troops are having a
very bad day -- even by the nightmarish standards of Vietnam. They've
just been dropped into a meat grinder with orders to reinforce a
Special Forces border camp that's about to be overrun by the North
Vietnamese. Outnumbered twenty-to-one, beset by treachery from within,
and saddled with an incompetent second-in-command, McCulloden knows
that all hell is about to break loose.
Through one brutal day and night McCulloden and his men fight
alongside their native Montagnard allies in a pitched battle of blood
and guts against an unwavering foe who never stops coming. The Green
Berets can neither give up nor give in, and all will become heroes in
the truest sense of the word. But one extraordinary soldier man rises
above them all in an ultimate act of valor....
J. C. Pollack author of Payback (John F.
Mullins) writes with the authority and conviction that only someone
who's been there can.
John F. Mullins joined the U. S. Army in 1960 and
served three tours in Vietnam with the Special Forces, initially as a
medic and then as an "A" Team XO and CO, and as a SOG
Operative after being commissioned in 1964. After retiring in 1981, he
has worked as a "for-hire soldier," conducting security and
antiterrorism operations in such hot spots as Bogota, Colombia,
Beirut, and Belfast. He lives in Oklahoma.
