Soldiers Medal

9.0 / 10 average from 1 rated reviews

For the men of U.S. Army Special Forces Camp A-555, the enemy comes in many forms. But perhaps the most dangerous adversary is one that the Americans cannot see, a soldier who surrenders to combat pressure. Sergeant Sean Cavanaugh and a patrol of RF strikers are ambushed at Listening Post One. In the ensuing attack the force is wiped out. Cavanaugh is the sole survivor. Riddled with the guilt of his very survival, the sergeant's mind snaps, and he becomes a rogue soldier. Captain Mack Gerber, commander of Camp A-555, is suspicious of Cavanaugh, realizing that in a hostile situation the sergeant's mental state could endanger the lives of those with him. So when Cavanaugh organizes a hunter-killer team to seek revenge for the ambush, Gerber is left with only one choice- find and kill Cavanaugh!

The Phantom 9/10 April 10, 2020

This book has the new version of camp a-555, after the original was destroyed in the last book. Since the setup of the original camp, the character of Sean Cavanaugh has been in limbo, and here in Soldier's Medal, we finally get to have the focus of the story on this character. The series is very realistic in its tone up to this point, and the author seems to push the boundary a little more in embellishment for dramatic purposes for this title. Cavanaugh is an interesting character, and his actions are both questionable and understandable. Is he right or is he wrong? His heroics were strong in book one, and having read that book before reading this is highly recommended, as is reading them all in order. Here Cavanaugh takes center stage, and the scenes with Gerber and Fetterman are excellent as they are increasingly concerned about the actions of Cavanaugh. Action scenes, tense and suspenseful abound, and Gerber's decision later in the story is surprising and had me stunned. The action at the end is a little hard to follow, lots of chaos, but the ending is quite dramatic, and concludes one of the better books in this excellent series.
