This book is dedicated to those men and women who have served in the armed forces. During the American Civil War, the veterans who survived the horrors of that conflict had a saying … “I’ve seen the elephant,” simply meaning that they have seen combat and lived to talk about it. For those of you who have served or are currently serving, we thank you for your dedication to your country. And for those brave soldiers who gave their last full measure, we salute you! This is your book!
