Inhaltsangabe

This story is fiction based in part on the life of Robert A. Boyd while he served in the United States Air Force in the mid 1960's. The story centers around the US Military during a time of civil unrest in America and the uncertanty of survival if a man joined the US Military from 1965 thru 1968 at a time American citizens fought not only the US Government, and each other, for race equality, peace, and freedom from oppression, but the unpopular, to its citizens and especially its military personnel, Vietnam War. Its writings detail the names and locations of actual top-secret US military bases that were used, located both inside and outside Vietnam in 1967 and 1968, and many highly detailed scout sniper missions that includes actual mission locations and targets. This is a story about the so called, 'best against the best', sniper against sniper, about one top-secret scout-sniper team sent out against emense odds on a deadly continent. The book includes detailed sexual content; its combat depictions include very graphic violence, torture, terrorism, period prejudicial language, slurs, and acts, plus race and theater of war specific slang language. These inclusions are necessary to the story for the period of which it was written, and are not meant to debase, slander, or affront anyone or any race. They are simply recreations of period historical fact.
