It Took Heroes II chronicles the spirit, heroics & sacrifices of those who placed their lives on behalf of ungrateful politicians & neighbors. A first-person non-fiction account of the author's second year in combat, focused on the enlisted men & small-unit leaders who bore the brunt of war upon their bodies & souls amidst the ever worsening hostility of the "folks back home." It continues the tribute to loved ones on the home front that endured the horrors of war vicariously & the abuse of neighbors in person. It captures the essence of infantry & air-calvary combat as only a soldier can. Heroes II is for the "Greatest Generation," - parents of these heroes, veterans & their loved ones, soldiers, students of history & even those who blamed the soldier who fought on their behalf. Though written by a chaplain, Heroes II is not about religous tenets & doctrine. Like Heroes I, it includes an extensive glossary, index & photographs.
