So Help Me God presents twenty-one realistic combat accounts shared from the vivid memories of heroes who lived to tell them. Yet, deep from the memories of each hero we have the rare privilege to experience what they saw, said, and did each time the "death angel" knocked on their doorstep. From gripping details mixed through tears and painful memories, we "feel" the anxiety Doc felt as he frantically tries to save the life of an innocent child, wounded by the savagery of hidden bombs. We gasp in horror as Khmer Rouge goons torment Chou Te's humble, innocent family. We feel the tension in Leo as German boots walk within mere inches of his hidden hand, hiding from them in moments of darkness. Visually swim underwater with Don, approaching the shores of Iwo Jima. Learn of Betty Lynn's (Thelma Lou of the Andy Griffith show) heroic service during WWII. Be inspired by these heroes, touched, led, and protected by the hand of God. It is a rare talent where an individual, through his own military experiences, can recognize and illuminate another veteran's honor to serve his country. Jerry Barnes possesses that God-given talent. -Edwin N. LeGard, Commander, United States Navy, (Ret)
