William, I started your books in the wrong order, with Butter Bar. I just finished Combat: Magic Bullet. Will the Korea series continue?

While it's often nice to keep to the chronology, any of my books can be read as a stand-alone. As to the Korea series, I currently have no plans to continue it, but never say never. Many of its pivotal characters move into the Jif Miles Vietnam series. Thanks for reading. WPG(less)

Loved your Moon brothers series. Hope you are going to keep it going. That being said, aren't you just a little harsh on the Sherman tank? I know it's popular to portray it as an inferior machine to the Panther or Tiger, but it did pretty well against Tigers in North Africa and in Italy. Also, it was far less prone to catching fire than you suggest. Despite this, please keep writing. Your books are a joy to read.

Harsh on the Sherman? I guess your opinion of any weapons system depends on the point of view of who you've read and talked to. For a long time, I've been of the school that the Sherman succeeded due to its abundance on the battlefield and relative mechanical reliability over other weapons systems. When deployed by good tacticians, they could--and did--prevail over better armed and better protected vehicles. I agree that it was no more flammable than any other gasoline-powered tank (especially later models with water-jacketed ammo storage), but bear in mind I didn't create the nicknames for her, like "Zippo," "Ronson," and the like--her crews did.
BTW, the fourth book in the Moon Brothers series should be out in a few months. Stay tuned...and thanks for the feedback!(less)
