Chapter 9

John Clark Kelly and Kevin Spencer have been friends since they first meet June 6, 1944. Since that hellish day, John and this friends from the eighty-six airborne platoon have been plagued by horrible nightmares. John couldn't forget the faces of all the German soldiers he killed. John kept his demons suppressed with alcohol and drugs, but the bloodstains of war still lurked in his soul.

Time the avenger robbed Kelly of his once young, agile and athletic body and turned the young boy he once was into tired, angry and bitter old man. His wavy red hair has turned gray and his once strong fighting spirit had dwindled to a fragile coward. But he still has gorgeous green eyes and a cunning smile.

John was devastated by memories of murder and blood that he endured in the last great war. The only refuge that Kelly had from the trauma of war was whiskey and his friend Todd Beacon.
