Rebels on the Mountain - Nick Andrews had Fidel Castro in his sights, but he didn't pull the trigger. Everybody wanted him to pull it. The American business community in Cuba and the mafia who ran the casinos in Havana would have paid him a fortune to take the shot. But Nick was a spy, not an assassin. Also, he had other things on his mind. A romance. The safety of his friends. His future in the Army. Follow Nick as he makes the tough decisions amid the chaos of revolution in Rebels on the Mountain.

Short Stories

Infantry School: A Soldier's Journal

Picture

This is a memoir of my first year in the Army including Basic Combat Training, Advanced Infantry Training, and Infantry Officer Candidate School. If you're a veteran, it's a chance to reminisce. If not, it's your chance to learn what it takes to make a soldier. Maybe it's an insight into the experiences a beloved family member never talks about.

Vietnam: A Soldier's Journal

Picture
This memoir picks up where his firs, Infantry School, left off. It recounts the author's tour of duty in Vietnam during the war that tore America's heart in half. It is a tale of his adventures and misadventures while serving in the rear echelons of the 9th Infantry Division. This telling of the Vietnam story is not politically correct, just true. Although not a chronicle of combat, Jack was privileged to investigate and report on many acts of valor, including four that earned the Medal of Honor. These are included in his memoir.
