Overview

This is the Second Edition of Seek-On A non-fiction account of a unique specialty created as a response to the ability of the enemy in Vietnam to disappear into the terrain. The Combat Tracker Team - 5 men and a Labrador retriever - were the counter-terrorist force of the late 1960s-early 1970s and they were successful in bringing justice to the elusive enemy . Surviving their tours of duty with commendable success (according to General William C. Westmoreland), these highly trained warriors were separated; their records sealed in red tape and inaccessible to them or others; unable to communicate with the rest of their teams with whom they had bonded closer than brothers. This was due to the fact that the British military had been involved with the creation and initial training of the young volunteers who were the foundation of the Combat Tracker Teams of the US Army. In the world of international treaties, Great Britain could not be involved in this conflict...and so, despite the valor and mission success that they attained, their stories could not be told. They could not get proper care in the VA system. They could not validate claims of their combat in their real specialty. They were outside of the loop...until they started the clock again in 1998 and this is their story.
