A Dusty Boot Soldier Remembers is the personal memoir of Colonel Larry Redmond, U. S. Army (RET). It covers his 24-year military career, beginning with his commissioning as a 
Lieutenant of Infantry in 1962 upon graduation from Providence College to various command 
and staff positions with the 101st Airborne Division, 8th Special Forces Group Airborne, XVIII Airborne Corps, the 82d Airborne Division and various other special operations units. Colonel Redmond did two combat tours in Vietnam and had overseas assignments that took him to Panama, Thailand, England, and Israel.

“Colonel (Retired) Redmond’s book is a memoir and an exposé of both the shiny and tarnished elements of our Army and our Joint Services over the years, and a tribute to our great soldiers and leaders. If you ever served in the “old” Army, or even were a dependent, you will recognize the places and events, maybe not the same ones you experienced, but ones so similar you can’t help but smile and nod your head as you read his accounts.”  —John Taylor, Lieutenant Colonel, USA (Retired). Author: Lost Key, Desert Winds, Gulf Winds and Missing Sticks

“There are precious few times when words, although true, can evoke an experience in the reader…Larry Redmond’s do so, and often. If you want a sincere and thrilling look into the life of a genuine soldier/patriot, grab some boot polish and stand in the door! Green light says GO!”  —Bill Cain, Colonel, USA (Retired). Author: Hitler’s Last Gamble and Crossing the Line
