Quotes by Kent Hinckley (?)

“Hoffman would receive a demotion to Major subject to army approval and immediate repatriation the the United States for further assignment. His military career, while not over, had ended. One drunken outburst erased his previous achievements, but thoughts about his disgrace went to Kaye, and the shame his behaviour put on his family”
― Kent Hinckley, Second Chance Against the Third Reich
