The Fighting Doc (Special Order ALLOW 5-7 Days) - Coey, John Alan

It is Saturday afternoon, 19 July 1975, next to a dry riverbed in Rhodesias northeastern operational area, in a war against communist-backed guerrillas. A Rhodesian combat medic receives an order to descend into the riverbed to attend to two critically wounded troopers, their figures seemingly lifeless on the sand. The whereabouts of the insurgents is not known. As the medic, displaying a red cross, moves in, shots ring out and he sustains a fatal head wound. That medic is 24-year-old American John Alan Coey.
