Military Stories

Readers have told me that they enjoy my fond remembrances from my days in Sodom-and-Gomorrah-by-the-Potomac. You might think that I am making this up. All I can say is - believe it... There is nothing here that isn't part of your present day reality. None of the operations, or agencies, their mission, or gear are a figment of my imagination. They all operate exactly as I describe them and they are doing it as we speak. Frankly, I don't know whether to be proud, or terrified... Enjoy!

'Johnny Goes to War' covers the almost four years after Johnny graduated from high school. One early reader of the book raved: "'Johnny Goes to War' is that perfect melding of heart pounding military action and scalding hot, yet tastefully presented, sex. It is 'Saving Private Ryan' meets 'Debbie Does Dallas,' yet it is as sensitively written as 'Doctor Zhivago' with characters as complex as those in 'From Here to Eternity.' (Thanks, Mom)
