From Valor, Triumph, a novel of a century of American warriors, is a work of military historical fiction. It spans WWI through the War on Terror, centering on four generations of the Howard family, fighting men from the low country of South Carolina. The book celebrates their courage, honor and valor on and off the battlefield, as well as the humorous side of military life.
Sometimes danger isn't found on a battleground--it's sitting at your front door. Nic Caldwell is back Stateside, working the job she was supposed to have before her most recent deployment, and living her best life at home. At least she thought she would be, except her PTSD is always in the background, dragging her back to her tour in Afghanistan. As she struggles to control her demons privately, her public life with Claire is almost picture perfect. However, a picture can't show everything hiding just under the surface. Claire Monroe has the love of her life back in one piece--almost. She's trying to help Nic adjust to her new normal both physically and emotionally while also going back to school and raising their daughter, Grace. With all the difficulties Nic's re-entry poses along with the new challenges of being an adult student, she wonders how she can guide them back to their old life while building a new one for herself. Cece Ramirez has decided that the Army has served its purpose and she is ready for a new chapter in her professional and personal life. Retiring from active duty and moving on to a new role as a police officer on a college campus, she realizes that she's traded camo, discipline, and rifles for book bags, bikes, and rowdy post-adolescents. While she and the students at Cal State Monterey Bay might be the same age, their pasts are vastly different, and the transition from soldier to college cop may not be as smooth as she hopes. When a chance encounter at a near-base shopette challenges Nic's authority and leaves her and her family in potential peril, Cece and Claire must pull together to back Nic up in peacetime, and right at home.
"Get your affairs in order because we are about to go to war..." "We all go into Laos together and we all come out of Laos together" " I am on Fire and going down...tell my family I loved them..." (The above are actual quotes from pilots in the battle.) Undaunted Valor, Lam Son 719 is a novel based on an accurate account of the bravery and dedication of helicopter crews, consisting of mostly teen agers and young officers flying under the most intense combat conditions since WWII. US Army and Marine Corps helicopters flew South Vietnamese ground forces fifty miles into Laos to interdict the Ho Chi Minh Trail in hopes of providing time for the South Vietnamese to take over the fight and allow American forces to come home. Fly with the men of the 223rd, 14th and 101st Aviation Group as they press the attack at the cost of aircraft being blown out of the sky. Although Lam Son 719 was a military failure for its intended purpose, it was a victory for Army aviation and the employment of helicopters on the battlefield into the 21st Century. The lessons learned from this one action, set the stage for the development of todays Army Aviation. Follow Colonel Cory as he recounts some of the most intense helicopter and ground combat of the Vietnam war from the eyes of the man who spent two combat tours there. The accounts reveal the dedication helicopter crews had for each other and their desire for mission accomplishment. Awarded the Silver Star, the Distinguished Flying Cross and two Air Medals for Valor, Colonel Jacksons' hair-raising accounts of what it was like to fly in this environment will make you feel as if you are right there with him. Get your copy of this true-life event of American heroes that have been overlooked too long.

From dealing with uncomfortable challenges to setting boundaries with others, the author shares wisdom gained from personal triumphs over trauma and setbacks. Intertwined with motivational stories of individuals like Mother Teresa, Oprah Winfrey, and Maya Angelou, the manuscript identifies key attitudes and strategies employed by resilient spirits, including hope for the future, optimism, self-efficacy, and a strong social support system.As readers explore the benefits of resilience, from improved mental health to enhanced job satisfaction, they are encouraged to embrace a positive mindset and draw inspiration from everyday sources. The book provides a roadmap for overcoming obstacles, reframing perspectives on failure, and ultimately thriving in the face of life's challenges.The manuscript emphasizes the transformative power of tenacity, asserting that it goes beyond physical recovery to shape our perspectives and enable us to thrive. It provides a nuanced understanding of trauma, its effects on our psyche and spirit, and how grit, as a learned skill, can reverse the negative impacts.In the exploration of trauma and its effects, the book acknowledges the lasting impact it can have on individuals. However, it maintains that with time, introspection, and conscious efforts to adopt a positive outlook, resilience can take root and pave the way for a fulfilling life.
