This collection honors the men who've served in the military and labored with the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy. In Laura Baumbach's Designated Target a soldier returns to his commander's hometown to tell his brother the truth about what happened in the field. Josh Lanyon's Until We Meet Once More pits a Naval Academy graduate against the Taliban and his own repressed past. Finally in Z.A. Maxfield's Jumping Off Places a soldier returns home to be with his dying mother and finds more than he bargained for in the place he'd hoped to never see again.
