Thank you so much for your service to our country. I cannot imagine all that you’ve been through. Years ago I went to high school with your parents and recently saw them at a class reunion. When I received this e-mail, I wanted to pass along my thanks and gratitude to you for all you’ve done in the military for our country. You are truly a fine person and soldier.
Thank you Mr. Soper. Much appreciated.
Mr. Krott–I read your book and enjoyed it. I am a former infantryman myself (though briefly) 25th Infantry 92-94 and still keep in contact with many from my platoon and battallion.
So glad you talked about the multitude of phoneys out there. I have been in Immigration Enforcement for the past 14 years and still do it to this day in Tulsa, OK–had dinner with some guys from my battallion I hadn’t seen in 16 yrs!! What a trip!
Anyways liked your book and your style—your not the type of Officer I was used to—you seemed alot more like a platoon SGT. Take care and I’ll be looking for your next book.

Mr. Krott,
our paths may have crossed as I worked as a translator in
Croatia and BiH in the 1990s. I think a good friend of mine Don
may have met you in Tomislavgrad as well.
I look forward to the book.
Whatever happened to the legendary Glasnovic brothers from Canada?
Cheers
Erica
I really liked your book Sir and respect what you did. I have been trying to figure out a way to do much of the same thing, but it seems like a dead end street to me. Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Erica,
I mention in the epilogue of my book that Nick’s twin was in Edmonton when I was still living there. Nick (Zjelko) shows up at the Foreign Volunteers get togethers in Vukovar, etc., every year.
Just wanted to make a correction. It is Ms. Soper, not Mr. Soper.
Did some early spring cleaning today and found your business card. I think I got it at the SOF convention in Las Vegas many years ago.
You came by a table the Gary Hicks and I had. Gary is known for his double action knives. You told us that you still had such a knife that Gary made and that it has traveled the world with you.
Hope you are safe and doing well. Gary is now in Texas and is thinking of retireing from knife making.
I need to order my Randall 14 from him before he hits that rocking chair.
Kind regards
David
