"Morgan and I both served in the very same unit, and his memoir brought back many powerful memories for me. Our tours overlapped for eight months, so many of the events described in Drafted! coincided with my own, especially the losses of the brave young men serving with A Troop, 3/17th Air Cavalry. I had the honor to serve in A Troop with dedicated young men that truly cared about one another and risked their lives to protect each and every Trooper. It was a total team effort from the Orderly Room, to the flightline and maintenance, and throughout our ensuing operations into enemy territory. It was a very powerful bond that still exists today between us, and a bond that only those in combat together can fully understand. Morgan's memoir captures not only that bond, but also the profound bravery and sacrifices made. Ultimately, we fought for each other. We are truly a special Band of Brothers that time and space cannot separate! Salute! -Roger ""Bear"" Young, Silver Spur Scout Crew Chief & Scout Line Chief, 1969-1970"

Author Information

"Morgan Miller is a military veteran and retired liquor store owner from San Diego, California. He lives with his wife, Ginger, a retired nurse, in the serene desert community of Borrego Springs. In 2002, to escape the scorching summer heat, they drove their motorhome to Alaska. It was the first of many annual road trips crisscrossing America. During these leisurely cross-country vacations, Morgan listened to his much younger self recounting details of his year in Vietnam on a collection of fifty-two vintage Craig Reel-to-Reel tapes. Over several years, Morgan transcribed his audio letters to Ginger, containing the story of his wartime combat experiences, into a draft manuscript.A decade later, with Ginger's support, a memoir took shape. However, the rigors of getting it ready for publication meant the draft manuscript languished in the backwater of his computer until 2022, when Ginger once again encouraged him to dust it off and find a professional to help take the promising memoir to the next level.Typing ""ghostwriter"" into Google, thousands of results immediately appeared. However, one name stood out from the masses: an experienced ghostwriter living in Canada. It only took one phone call for a bond to form between the two men. As the co-author of an award-winning military memoir, Fire from the Sky: A Diary Over Japan, this writer possessed the perfect qualifications to skillfully transform Morgan's factual yet mundane narrative into an exhilarating and gripping memoir."
