I recommend the many excellent Kindle books by Gordon Ryan from New Zealand. Below are a few. If you like them, there are several others.
Threads of Honor
http://amzn.to/e0AHgB
"'Threads of Honor' is guaranteed to give you goose bumps." -- Boys' Life, September 2004
"... all-American ingredients, masterfully mixed... Infectious inspiration for the Yankee Doodle Dandy in every American." -- The Boox Review, June 2004
“...I felt the cartilage in my back stretching and it struck me that I had never stood so tall — that after twenty years in a military uniform, the proudest moment of my life had come in a Scoutmasters uniform standing beside this flag.” The moving story of a group of Boy Scouts who learn the meaning of patriotism, honor, and courage. Worth reading for anyone who still feels that America is a country worthy of respect and honor.

"Ryan is known for his spare, lean prose, and his amazing understanding of the human condition. This latest offering may be his best yet. The subject matter is timely; the action is credible and often nail-biting." *
Jeff Needle, AML--Book Reviews
"Ryan is well known for his political intrigue novels and vast knowledge of political and military tactics. *Fast and enthralling. *Dialog is real. *Presents a truly strong female character who is still feminine." *
