Book Description
The Vietnam War was a war like no other war the United States had ever fought. In previous wars, success was measured by territory gained, sometimes miles, sometimes inches. In Vietnam the score was kept by body counts. A hilltop savagely contested and conquered one day, would be abandoned the next. There were no front lines. Every GI in Vietnam was subject to attack at any time. Teenagers would become seasoned jungle fighters, battle-hardened grunts, helicopter gunners, river boat crewmen and combat medics. Those guys who didn't come home from Vietnam served with honor and valor and received numerous medals for bravery, including the Medal of Honor. From the never-ending fight for freedom, 34 names are listed on the Wall of Honor at the Veterans Memorial Park in McKinney, Texas; 22 of those died on faraway battlefields. These are their stories.

Book Description
In 1950 the army of communist North Korea, in a vicious and merciless attack, invaded the free Republic of South Korea, murdering everyone who got in their way, and the United States found itself in another war. With the war in Korea coming just about five years after the end of WWII, the world was not interested in hearing about more death and destruction. Partly due to apathy and the fact that most families were still trying to put their lives back together after the last war, the Korean War became known as the "Forgotten War". In one of the most bloody and savage campaigns in our history, our boys, although under trained, out armed and outnumbered at almost every battle, fought valiantly and courageously. Hundreds of young Collin County Freedom Fighters left their homes and families, donned the uniform and traveled halfway around the globe in the never-ending fight for freedom. Twenty-six boys didn't come home. These are their stories. "A soldier is not dead until he is forgotten."
