Praise
“The story of the life, military achievements, and battle scars of one resilient Green Beret… This well-written account of Howard’s years of service, from 1956 to 1992, also offers a solid overview of U.S. Special Forces missions—most of which the elite soldiers ended up winning. Viewed more broadly, Beyond the Call of Duty makes a persuasive case for the argument that it was the generals, not the brave and relentless grunts on the ground like Howard, who lost the Vietnam War.”
—The Wall Street Journal
“Beyond the Call of Duty is written in a you-are-there manner… The work’s strength is in the descriptions of Howard’s Vietnam experiences. The book is well researched… Moore has written a page-turning biography rather than an academic work.”
—ARMY Magazine
“A long-awaited biography of the most decorated Special Forces soldier of all time. SFC Robert Howard’s exploits are unique and legendary, and almost mythical, but this was a soldier’s soldier.”
—Master Sergeant Jack Crossman, US Army (Ret.)
“Bob Howard was idolized by every recon man at FOB-2, so I give great credit to Stephen Moore for this fine memorial to the most valiant man I ever met. I’m especially grateful for the comprehensive action-packed battle accounts.”
—Lieutenant Colonel Ed Wolcoff, MACV-SOG team leader and author of Special Reconnaissance and Advanced Small Unit Patrolling
“At last, we now have a solid book about the tours of one of the most heroic SOG warriors of the Vietnam War.”
—John Stryker Meyer, MACV-SOG team leader and author of Across the Fence: The Secret War in Vietnam
“What makes this book so inviting is the amount of detail Moore offers through an incredible amount of research and a seasoned approach to storytelling… Moore’s chronicle depicts Howard’s odyssey in such detail that the reader experiences first-hand the extraordinary accomplishments of this great American hero.”
