Chapter 28 was pretty short and includes a transition to a backstory chapter about Jean's grandfather in WW2, so I included Chapter 29. It's about a place called Bloody Ridge (also known as Edson's Ridge) on the island of Guadalcanal. My great uncle was there during the battle as a Navy Seabee. The stories he told about the "raggedy-assed" Marines there were why I decided to join the Marines myself.
Since I started the first draft of the story on the anniversary of the battle, I felt I had to include an homage to those that fought and died there, and I had to include mention of one of the Marine Corps iconic weapons- the Kabar fighting- utility knife. I carried one myself for many years.
Anyhow I hope you enjoy the interlude. The fighting was taken from factual accounts, but the names are fictitious.
Cheers,
Charlie
Hope you all enjoy this one. It was tough writing the action sequences. Tom gets back in on the action as well as some new hotties.

Sorry for the delay, it's been insane at work and I'm also trying to finish up the second book in the Handyman series. I hope you all like this chapter. Much of the tactics and logistics come from my experience as a platoon and company commander. Flying horses and Valkyries were not a part of my training but I just imagined they were harriers and F18's. Haha. We also get some clues as to the identity of the mysterious blond from the rescue scene in Nexus Foundation.
Don't forget, if you'd like to read the whole shebang all at once, you can still get the completed entire book and support my writing efforts for only $5.99 on Bookapy. If you head over there please check out some of my other Nexus Universe books and stories.

This chapter includes a little bit of the real world including another piece of Vietnam war history. Also, if you are ever driving a Washington freeway and see the "free coffee" sign out next to the rest area, be sure and stop for coffee and cookies. Sometimes it's the VFW manning the coffee, or it might be the Eagles or the Moose or other worthy non-profits, but it's a welcome break on those long drives and the volunteers are amazing. Besides you might even bump into a Valkyrie or two 😊.
