Following their fallen brothers home, Andy Carter and Jim Anderson struggle to carve out a normal life post-combat. Dead-end jobs are the least of the insults they must endure. Instead of the hero’s welcome they’d expected, they’re greeted with contempt or apathy by those waiting back home.

After all, who’s going to help protect the soldiers left behind?

A former brother-in-arms has done the unforgivable—Carter and the others must do whatever it takes to survive and find justice.

But a fortuitously timed rocket attack sees the prisoner freed, and he slips away into the Vietnamese jungle.

Each booklet is divided into short chapters with titles such as "Alcoholic Lie a Lot" and "Sober and in Trouble" - all in a jargon-free, plain-speaking, down-to-earth style that reflects Bob's statement "I write like I talk."
