Everyday we read how the US government gives millions of dollars in aid to peckerwood governments, causes and rebels and just as often we see ex US service men sleeping in parks, dining in dumpsters or bagging in the streets. We read of the 800 + forms the vets must fill out before the VA will even hear their cases.
Such suffering breeds contempt for the government they once served and bled for. All too often they are 2nd class citizens in their own country while politicians reward "undocumented immigrants", illegal migrants, who pay no taxes, break laws and exploit the system, for political power.
The vets are used up and no longer of value, discarded rubbish.
Such men have skills: skills in organizing destruction, killing, terror and mayhem; once they were servants of the republic, now wishing to destroy the same and to walk away with their "share" of the war profits the novel explodes with action and intrigue as an elite group of vets battle international mobsters and the government.
A good, if chilling, read.
