The Misfits
Summary
We were part of The United States Naval Special Warfare Development Group (NSWDG), or DEVGRU, a secretive tier-one counter-terrorism and special mission unit. Officially, it was disbanded in 1987. DEVGRU is still administratively supported by Naval Special Warfare Command and operationally commanded by the Joint Special Operations Command. And we were the tip of the spear. Till we got too old for combat. Then we went private. Yeah, we’re older and slowing down a bit. But we’re still deadly. They took one of our family’s father. Kidnapped him, and that was a bad mistake. We work for money. But this one was personal. We were going up against the Mexican Cartel, at least a part of it. We were a ragtag handful of vagabond soldiers of fortune. The odds were greatly stacked against us. But some things are worth protecting. Even if we know at the start that we can’t win, it’s still worth the slim chance that we might succeed. Easy? Hell, no. The easy way wasn't in our plans. It never is. In fact, I don't think it’s even in our vocabulary. But we don’t talk much anyway. Our guns do that for us. We’re mercenaries, professional soldiers hired to serve for a foreign army. But sometimes we are a vengeful wrath attempting the impossible.

The Dead Never Sleep
Summary
On December 16, 1944, the mad man, Adolf Hitler, launched a massive counterattack against Allied forces who were freezing their butts off in the Ardennes Forests of Belgium. We were caught totally off guard when more than a quarter million crack German troops and hundreds of high quality tanks descended upon our positions The German offensive was led by the elite XLVII Panzer Corps. Hitler had launched his final gamble on these snow-covered forests. They thought the inferior, non-master race of Americans would just rollover and give up. But we stopped them cold in small forgotten towns and many unknown battles. The smell of death, blood, and fear became our only brother. Hell is for heroes. They stay there for all of eternity. Oh no, we aren't heroes. We’re just walking through hell, until we can crawl back out. We have a job to do. That’s why we’re here. The SS death heads are going to taste their own blood now. The Dead Never Sleep, a WWII historical fiction book, is a nonstop action thriller set in the Ardennes forests during the Battle of the Bulge. It concerns a group of worn out GIs who slowed the Nazi war machine down in one of the forgotten side battles during the end of German Operation Mist.
