Noble Warrior: Maj. Gen. James E. Livingston, USMC (Ret.), Medal of Honor
Noble Warrior: The Life and Times of Maj. Gen. James E. Livingston, USMC (Ret.), Medal of Honor
Major General James E. Livingston received the Congressional Medal of Honor for his role as an infantry company commander at Dai Do, Vietnam, during a three-day grinding battle of attrition in which the 2nd Battalion, 4th Marine Regiment, numbering only 800 men, victoriously battled 10,000 or more NVA. His remarkable life and career is recounted in a book that has it all: exciting first-person eyewitness account of historic battle; the history of the development of tactics and strategies used in today’s war on terror; and a compelling story of leadership in action and individual courage in combat.
Major General Livingston retired from the Marine Corps following more than thirty years of active duty service. He and his wife, Sara, live in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. Professor Colin D. Heaton served in the U.S. Army and later in the Marine Corps under Livingston's command as a scout sniper. He taught history and military history at American Military University, and is the author of several books and numerous articles. Colin lives in Southport, North Carolina. Anne-Marie Lewis received her BA and MA degrees with honors in International Relations from American Military University. Anne-Marie lives in Southport, North Carolina, and is co-author of Night Fighters.
