New Enemies

Right after World War II, the United States Army deactivated the Rangers. When the Korean War ignited in late June 1950, the army decided they were needed again. And fast.

New Enemies begins in September 1950, just three months after the World War II Series finale, Nazi Plunder, ended. Tom Dunn, currently working as a police detective in Kansas City, Missouri, feels a call of duty and volunteers to rejoin the new Rangers.

Traveling to Ft. Benning, Georgia, Lieutenant Dunn joins a Ranger company as a platoon leader as they go through the grueling Ranger Training Center’s eight-week training program. Not everything goes smoothly, but after the company graduates, they are finally the way to Japan, and their final destination, South Korea. They arrive in late January 1951, and are going to be in the throes of the Korean Peninsula’s bitter, brutal winter.

Assigned to the Eight Army’s 24th Infantry Division headquarters about fifty miles southeast of Seoul, South Korea, the new Ranger company is tasked with three missions, taken from history. They are thrust immediately into action. Starting with a long incursion combat patrol into enemy territory, they encounter the enemy. Can Dunn solve the challenging tactical problems that lay in front of him?

Another mission takes them in to the Saje-ri Twin Tunnels, two mile-long railroad tunnels west of Wonju, South Korea, they are to clear the tunnels with the help of a platoon of five Patton tanks, but naturally, things don’t go according to plan. Can they eliminate the Chinese Communist Forces surrounding them and return to the American front line safely?

In New Enemies, Munsterman introduces us to the men who fought in what was for a time called The Forgotten War. Once again he masterfully blends historical fact and fiction to create a compelling story of Tom Dunn and the U.S. Army Rangers. Their courage and dedication to each other exemplify the Rangers. In his usual page-turning action style, Munsterman carries us along in a gripping story illustrating the importance of why we were in South Korea: to save the people of an overwhelmed country from the hell of communist control.

Sgt. Dunn Novel #19, Nazi Plunder, is now available on Amazon!

I'm pleased to announce the publication of Sgt. Dunn Novel #19, Nazi Plunder!  

The book is now available on Amazon. This is the WWII finale of the Sgt. Dunn Novels, however . . . more to come in the Korean War.

Nazi Plunder


In the Sgt. Dunn World War II Novels finale, Lieutenant Tom Dunn leads two final missions. Bletchley Park analyst Reggie Shepston grows sick to his stomach when he discovers that the Sarin gas threat irradicated by Dunn’s and Malcolm Saunders’ men in Rogue Nazis, has reared its devilish head again. Unknown at the time, the Nazi in charge of the Sarin gas had hidden away a dozen of the deadly cannisters in an Austrian castle, one the Rangers and Commandos already know well, the Hohenstein Castle from Castle Breach. Can Dunn and Saunders pull off the destruction of the last remaining Sarin gas cannisters?

Gold, silver, precious gems, and masterpiece artwork plundered by the Nazis for years across Europe. Rumors. Whispers. Reggie Shepston and Eileen Lansford determine the rumors are factual. They come across a strange Enigma message from an SS colonel in southeastern Germany to, of all people, the Führer himself, Adolf Hitler. The message contains crucial evidence about a Nazi Plunder train and its location. Lieutenant Tom Dunn’s and Lieutenant Malcolm Saunders’ platoons parachute into Germany, hopefully for the last time. Can they fight off the SS unit there, find and secure the Nazi Plunder train, and turn its rich contents over to the Monuments Men unit, which is attached to General Patton’s Third Army just five miles to the north?

In Nazi Plunder, Munsterman shows us the courage and strength of our favorite characters, and the love they have for each other. In his typical page-turning style, he leads us through the end of the war and beyond. With surprises in store for the reader, this wonderful and satisfying WWII finale treats us with the final missions, postwar lives, and futures only dreamed of during the most horrible war in human history. More novels to come when Tom Dunn enters the Korean War in the next Sgt. Dunn Novel.
