Description

War – What happens to the soldiers who fight them? Do they ride off into the sunset? Do they return to their families to live a normal life? Or do they have an internal war? Trying to come to terms with what happened to them. Scars made not only outside but inside. Called baby killers, murderers, and many other vile names. Ignored and sometimes abused by the system they gave their oath and lives to protect. Lt. Colonel Jackson MacKenzie is one of those men. He gave his all on many occasions and nearly his life to honor his oath and the men he served with in Korea and Vietnam. Only to be betrayed by those above him. Those who know the truth but refuse to come forward. Honor, Duty, Country, and Loyalty aren’t just words. They are his life. Does he follow his heart and stand by his duty or let his demons take over? His other choice, live the rest of his life on a cattle ranch in Montana. It is a decision both hard and easy. And one he has to make or lose himself entirely.
