This book is about a man who overcame so much adversity, and loves the Lord, his family, boxing, and wildland firefighting. This story shares about someone who can and did overcome so much, including gangs, prison time, and sexual abuse. This book will challenge you to lay down your excuses, and fight to be a man or woman of commitment and great character. Despite any setbacks, regrets, and failures, you can still find your purpose and direction in life. My story shares powerful moments of how GOD will take you on a Damascus Road. It was an experience that knocked me to the ground and put temporary limits on me. You can discover the Power of GOD in the midst of your pain, fears, and loss. If you can see the purpose behind the pain, you will understand GOD's ability to do greater things in your life. Hard times and deep pain have the capacity to deepen your faith. 1 Peter 5:10.

During the two decades following entry into World War II, nearly 30 million men and women served in or worked for the United States military. Tens of thousands faced a general court-martial under the Articles of War, which prescribed either life in prison or death for crimes of murder, rape or desertion. Only 160 men were sentenced to death and executed--159 for murder or rape (or a combination of the two), and one for desertion. The manner of death was by firing squad or by hanging. These dishonored servicemen were buried in various locations around the world. Later, nearly all were moved to grave sites in military cemeteries, segregated from those who died honorably. This book tells the stories of the men, their crimes and their executions.
The Oise-Aisne American Cemetery is the last resting place of 6,012 American soldiers who died fighting in a small portion of Northern France during the First World War. The impressive cemetery is divided into four plots marked A to D. However, few visitors are aware that across the road, behind the immaculate façade of the superintendent’s office, unmarked and completely surrounded by impassable shrubbery, is Plot E, a semi-secret fifth plot that contains the bodies of ninety-four American soldiers.

Gliding around the ring and looking like a demented, black vampire with his goatee and Jeri curls, the "Hit Man", he had reassumed the moniker for the fight, went in for the kill. Pushing Duran backwards he leapt in and clobbered the cowering fighter with a vicious right hand that staggered Duran back into the ropes again. Hearns bounced backwards and then jumped in again with another vicious right hand and...
