Somewhere on the border between reality and fantasy lies the land of “What Ifs.” A little boy wakes from a busy dream to discover something has changed in his safe, familiar bedroom. A horn that looks exactly like the ones in the pattern of his bedspread is lying on the rug beside his bed. “What if,” he thinks, the cotton soldiers on his bedspread came alive and left it behind? A child’s fantasy. Or is it?

While in Vietnam, Slater Davis served in Bravo Company, 4th Battalion, 21st Infantry Regiment in the 11th Light Infantry Brigade of the Americal Division (23rd Infantry) from late 1970 until June of 1971. At that time, he was not aware of the history of Bravo Company, also known as “Big Bad Bravo”. It wasn’t until he began attending company reunions and meeting some of the men who had gone before him, did he get the ‘stirring’ to write Bravo’s story…from the perspective of the men who filled the Company’s ranks from November, 1967 until June of 1971. This book, “In The Shadow Of Heroes”, tells that story…from the forming at Schofield Barracks in Hawaii to the final stand down. Mr. Davis writes of the Grunt’s Life…the struggles, the emotions, the battles, and the sacrifices. His focus is on the grunts, and especially the heroes who never returned home. Please join him in honoring them as you read their story.
Lord You Are Real is a collection of inspirational poems, songs, writings, and prayers that have arisen out of my heart from the One who loves us. The collection began when I surrendered my life to God and His Lordship over thirty-three years ago. It is my intention, not only that others would glean from the treasure that I have found in Jesus Christ, but that they would also search and find their own relationship in Him.
