About this title

From the Author:

Proud Legions is a high-tech military thriller!
I hope that you enjoy reading Proud Legions! This novel isabout a future Korean War, a desperate gamble by a desperate country in an increasingly deteriorating situation. Today there are 37,000 American soldiers, sailors, airmen and marines defending our interests and South Korea. Many of these American warriors, especially the men and women of the 2d Infantry Division, live under the range of North Korean artillery guns every day. In spite of North Koreas poverty and famine, the military is well fed and prepared to fight. A miscalculation on the part of the North Koreans could result in a war along the demilitarized zone [DMZ] with very little warning. Desperate people often choose desperate measures. Proud Legions will give you the worms-eye view of modern war at the battalion level, painted behind a backdrop that explains the reasons why the North Korean regime might launch a war. If you like reading books such as Team Yankee or Red Phoenix you will enjoy Proud Legions. Thanks for reading this review and best wishes!
