Once An Eagle

**Required reading for West Point cadets, Once An Eagle is the story of one special man, a soldier named Sam Damon, and his adversary over a lifetime, fellow officer Courtney Massengale.** Damon is a professional who puts duty, honor, and the men he commands above self-interest. Massengale, however, brilliantly advances by making the right connections behind the lines and in Washington's corridors of power. **Beginning in the French countryside during the Great War,** the conflict between these adversaries solidifies in the isolated garrison life marking peacetime, intensifies in the **deadly Pacific jungles of World War II**, and reaches its treacherous conclusion in **the last major battleground of the Cold War—Vietnam.** Here is an unforgettable story of a man who embodies the best in our nation—and in us all.**
