I am amazed at the quality and depth of Cat 5's stories. I love historical fiction. Too bad the author's library is so short.
Great story. I like the historic setting and the concept that a clever 'grunt' can work the system to do what's right.
Great story. Love the historical contexts and ghe way a knowing 'Top' can work the system.
Fun story but tries to pack too much in and gets to be jumbled at times. That is my only critique.
I didn’t even take it out of my pants and I still loved the story. The author’s depiction of love and what we do for the people we care about touched me emotionally and brightened my day. Hope they keep writing.
Very nice--five stars worth. I especially appreciate the substantial time taken to ensure no (that I noticed) misspellings, misused homophones or other simple errors that substantially detract from the reader's appreciation of the story.
A very good job--keep up the good work.
It was a nice, well-written story... thank you
P.S. I agree with JLesterMc about the grammar and spelling, I didn't notice anything untoward... very unusual, but well appreciated!
W.E.B. Griffin would be proud of author’s attention to detail, TOEs, unit organization all well done.
One of the best stories I have read. Well organized, great detail and love make this a great story.
A hell of a good story and different from anything I've read here so far, making it double appreciated. My only real problem with it is that no attempt was made to explain how the Captain's family was safely evacuated when North Koreans attacked. However, I do acknowledge that sometimes "need to know" isn't extended unnecessarily. Thanks for an excellent read.
Wonderful story to read again after a few years. Not bad for a green Lt. Wish I could give the story another five stars, but I'll just enjoy reading it again further down the line. Thanks
This was just terrifically well written and plotted! Bravo (or Brava if appropriate)!
Fantastic story. I find sometimes this author swings and misses but when thr author hits, he/she hits dead on. Like "Sales Team" this was a bullseye. Huzzah!
I’ve just come across your sight , read four (4) or five (5) of your stories, all great reads five (5) stars each!!! Thanks loved them all!! Yes I know you can’t eat or drinks on giving free stories out but if ya do, will be looking for them again thanks
This is a phenomenal story even without the erotica elements. Very high quality writing. Character development, plot twists and details. I am really enjoying your stories. I can't get enough. I hope you write more soon!
Wonderful story.
Can anybody clue me in why Waters losing the sidearm was significant?
Until the epilog this was a strong 4* headed to five. Elke's report to HER general took it over the top. Well done romance with some action.
Thanks for sharing your talents!

i loved it! 6 stars for a well thought out story. Author must have a military background. Way to many specifics to be pure fiction. A good mix of character development, plot, love and sex. Thanks.
P.S. I also would like to know where Cat5 is hiding.
10 stars! It was wonderful Dave and Elke got together and her daughter had a daddy. Also, it was wonderful when she told him, he was her, and the childrenx' world, as they were his, too!
Don't remember when last i read this one, it still gets a 5+ rare from me. Yes, my screen name is correct, I'm retired military and spent enough time to say totally possible and believable. Great read!! Thank you
Great diversity in settings, romance and action, another 5⭐️’s. Wish you were still at it.
Is this a great Romance or is it a brief version of an historical spy novel?
you can answer after you enjoy a great read!!!

A passerby born in SKorea here. FTF, great story. Impressive and spicy. Joyful read.
What I’d like to say here is, historians widely believe that the US military intelligence overall failed to catch incoming clouds of invasion.
One more, there was a SKorean unit used 105mm M3 direct-fired against a T-34. Sadly the unit couldn’t survive.
Wonderful story, 10 stars! It wasn't long after Dave met Elke, they were a couple, and when he met Sophie, he had a little girl, especially when she called him daddy...
The similar situation happened on Pearl Harbor. Information not recognized. I don’t usually enjoy army stories, but this one takes the cake. If any character is outstanding it is Elke. There is no way you could not fall in love with her.. she was adorable. You added something I don’t see very often an epilogue. And what an epilogue it was. The Captain made General. And it seems they are still a loving couple and had another girl after the twins. A rather rambunctious girl, who doesn’t take no shit. The very last line seals the deal by coming back full circle.
Cat5 I salute you.
Excellent story, my 2nd reading. Just wondered what form of contraception was used in the 1950's so Elke didn't get pregnant?
Have read many, many stories here and this is among the very best. To echo the words from another recent comment: wish you were still writing and sharing your wonderful talent.
