Two distinguished authors have joined forces to create a trailblazing novel that exceeds simple classification of a military thriller. Their new bookpulls back the curtain on psychological operations and those who ran the war for “hearts and minds” in war- torn Vietnam.
Rick DeStefanis and Brian Hampton unveil their new novel, SAIGON WARRIORS, PSYOPS In VIETNAM. The book will be publicly released in the near future.
The fact-based novel relates one year in the lives of the US Army psychological operations “warriors” in the urban Big Stir of Saigon. The setting is teeming with generals, politicians, media stars, Hollywood celebrities, “bar girls,” airline stewardesses, black marketers and corporate war profiteers, all surrounded by the chaos and violence of war.
Anecdotal glimpses provide humorous episodes too ridiculous to be fictional. Amid all the turmoil, real romance enters into the life of the book's protagonist, offering the promise of enduring love, if only he can live long enough.
The book has a target audience for readers of military thrillers, war fiction and romantic thrillers. The book will also strike a responsive chord with those who have a contemporary interest in psychological warfare
The broad market for the book also includes 12 million Vietnam Era Veterans, 18 million military veterans and the estimated 90 million American Veterans, plus family and friends.

He is the author of 13 books, many of which have been award winners, including the Readers Favorite Award for military fiction, the Best Indie Book Award for literary fiction, the Military Writers Society of American Gold Medal and the Gold Medal Award for Literary Faction.
