A Silver Star recipient performs one last act of selfless courage and discovers what waits for him on the other side of life. A beloved community veteran suffers a senseless act of violence. A Special Forces operative pulls off the heist of a lifetime. Three old friends reminisce over the loss of a veteran and local legend.
Settle in with your beverage of choice and prepare for a collection of short stories that will touch your heart and remind you of the real people hidden behind the history.
