I would add that the book “Expendable Elite – One Soldier’s Journey Into Covert Warfare” is a rare publication with me (being the the author) and my publisher having been taken to Federal Court by the Special Forces Association, no doubt backed by the CIA, (one of whose agents was present at the trial)in a vain attempt to bankrupt me and my publisher and pull my book off the market. We won the court case and published this new edition which includes 100 added pages telling of the trial. If you were to go to http://www.ExpendableElite.com you could read all about the trial itself. In fact, the entire trial transcript (which cost us $2,500.00) is on the website so that the world may read it for yourself and know the truth of what took place in that court session! A new printing is in the mill so that orders may be satisified. You may order a signed book if you so desire at no extra cost.
