GOD & COUNTRY

by Joe Medina

Overview

JOE LEZAMA was the dreg of the earth, the rejected, the unwanted. No one gave a dam about him. Hated and

faced with corruption of the soul, Joseph made a last struggle in an attempt to secure a better life for himself,

some place where he was a hero of the people and not just some punk kid off the streets. Here he would become

a man as he learned to be the scourge of the battle field striking to kill where he was weak, to grow strong,

where the strong grow mighty, for he had the correct attitude; one does not die for country, one kills for it.

He became dangerously honorable, too honorable to believe, for he had his freedom and he had his God and

none could contain him.
