D. H. Brown is a Vietnam Veteran who
earned the Bronze Star, the Army Commendation Medal and the Republic of Vietnam (RVN) Gallantry Cross Medal with Palm. D.
H. Brown is the author of Honor Due and Honor Defended.
According to the book description of
Honor Due, “the Major is an ex-Special Forces Vet whose years in 'Nam taught him the art
of war. He'd worked covertly for the government until the '90s, when bone-tired of the killing, he walked away and
lost himself in the Pacific Northwest. Until he's targeted by a Special Ops team, and forced to resume hunting in the
old way. When he find his old Montagnard friend, former Rhade Striker, tortured and killed, and his friend's daughter
hiding in the forest, he vows to take the vengeance owed his fallen brother and family. The Major's new mission is to
unearth what happened 35 years earlier as South Vietnam was falling, that has triggered the current pursuit. Still mourning
his Rhade wife and children killed in that far-away jungle, he doesn't expect to find, and does, another chance at love.
"Honor Due" speaks for the soul of our citizen warriors, appealing to readers of both genders interested in the
way soldiers view the world. Without glamorizing violence, "Honor Due" offers a tense drama and insights into the
warrior's code, honor, personal responsibility and the necessity of keeping fang and claw sharp in this age of terrorism.”
The American Authors Association said
of Honor Due, “This entertaining thriller is unusual in two ways, the hero is nearer sixty
than fifty, and the action takes place in a relatively small area of the wilderness of the state of Washington. Despite his
age, this hero is intelligent, fit, well-armed and prepared for anything. The paranoia that fed his quest for survival, is
well-founded, as he realizes he's being stalked. After he discovers the mutilated body of a friend from the Vietnam war
and finds the man's injured daughter, he knows he must prepare himself for the worst. He only knows the answer to what's
happening lies deep in his past. Honor Due is filled with suspense and action, modern technology and a
tender love story. Thrilling from page one to the end, this is a true page-turner. D. H. Brown has created a winner.”

According to the book description of
Honor Defended, “Major Westfall is back, in another non-stop action adventure. On a freezing cold winter
morning he is awakened before dawn by a frantic call from an old friend and War Brother. He is being called out to hunt for
the killers who burned down a woman's house on the Strait of Juan de Fuca, abducted her, and left behind the beheaded
body of her Marine Corps husband. On the beach behind the Holbech place, he finds signs that someone came ashore on the last
high tide. Tracks lead to a pile of driftwood where Black Dog noses out the family's wounded dog. Putting his ear to the
Hoko grapevine, he hears of a break-in at the local gravel quarry, where explosives and detonators were taken. A neighbor's
grandchild mentions a missing school janitor, and the name her classmates gave him, Aladdin. When the Major takes a sneak
and peek he unearths a terrorist sleeper. Calling in the troops, he prepares to do battle deep in the Olympic Peninsula wilderness
where a cadre of evil souls have gathered, intent on creating havoc with the Washington State's ferries. HONOR DEFENDED
occurs over one 24 hour period of heart-pounding action in which old friends are met, new ones made, the young must grow up
fast as lives are broken, and the honor of a War Brother is defended.”
