Walt Gragg is an attorney and former state prosecutor. He is a Vietnam veteran, who served at United States European Headquarters in Germany, where the idea for The Red Line took shape. Being privy to the actual American plan for the conduct of the defense of Germany, and having participated in a number of war games while in Germany, gave Gragg the knowledge and experience to lend authenticity to many of the novel's events.

Griffin. -Jon Land, USA Today bestselling author of Strong Cold Dead [An] impeccably researched, riveting first novel...Must reading for any military action fan.
