    About this ebook

    Eddie Hawkins is part of a four-man crew, the cupola gunner on a Humvee in Afghanistan. His job, firing the .50 caliber Browning. His mission, to protect his buddies and kill the enemy. He’s also the newest and youngest member of the team. The guy they won’t listen to, even when he’s saying something important. Why listen to the kid who can’t shoot straight? At least that’s what they keep telling him. Until the day he sees something so vital he forces them to listen and they have to take notice. Eddie saves countless Coalition lives, and nothing will ever be the same again.

    Hawkin’ Heroes: Baptism of Fire is the first short novel in the Hawkins’ Heroes series. Baptism of Fire is a collaboration between Todd McCleod and Eric Meyer, the bestselling author of more than fifty war novels.
