The author himself is a thirty-year veteran of private contractor black operations so he knows his subject quite well. Dan Morgan, A.K.A Cobra, has retired …
Thanks to St. Martin’s Press for the Advanced Reader’s Copy of The Nugget by P. T. Deutermann. Mr. Deutermann is one, if not THE, best writer of WWII military fiction on the market today. Both he and his father served in the U.S. Navy as senior officers. The father served in WWII, mainly in the …
