☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeAn anthology of war stories featuring U.S. paratroopers in combat. "Destruction at Kum Tom" follows Logan and his men as they infiltrate a heavily fortified enemy position at Mount Kum Tom, attempting to penetrate the wired fence and destroy the compound from within. "The Promise" depicts an American G.I. and his North Korean comrade Frank remembering a fallen friend, Johnnie Clay, a paratrooper whose sacrifice in battle exemplified the friendship and values they fought to preserve. "Machine-Gun Hero" recounts Sergeant Joe Meme's courageous defense of his position against overwhelming enemy forces during a three-day mountain attack, earning him the Congressional Medal of Honor for his heroic stand.
In a Korean War patrol, hot-headed Joe Snyder—a bully who's made enemies with his fists—finds himself trapped behind enemy lines with the very man he's been feuding with, Ed Peters. When Snyder is wounded and Peters saves his life anyway, the act of kindness begins to crack the armor around a man who never learned that respect comes from being a friend, not throwing punches. As the two race to rejoin their unit, Snyder discovers it might not be too late to become the kind of soldier—and person—worth fighting for.
