And it kicks off from here and you can twist and turn it anyway you fancy.
Make the Man's character grow, involve his son who is a Iraqi and Afghanistan vet, involve his old military buddies, involve old friends and enemies in vietnam.
Add in some surprises from the old days leading up to today.
All the good stuff of a modern novel.

Except the son is luring his dad's old friend back to Vietnam because he blames him for his pa's death....
