STONY MAN®

AMERICA’S ULTRA-COVERT INTELLIGENCE AGENCY

Don Pendleton

This book is dedicated with sincere respect and appreciation to the 3rd Battalion, 25th Marine Regiment, Ohio Marine Reserve, for its service in Iraq. You’re heroes all. “Thank you” seems woefully inadequate recompense, particularly for those who made the ultimate sacrifice. We owe you so much.

Also dedicated to the loving memory of Carol—wife, mother and my favorite reader. Charlie misses you and so do I.

And, last but not least, to Bill C., my other favorite reader. Keep fighting the good fight, my man.
