Dragon SIM-13 is an elaborate computerized command post exercise to test the readiness of the U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM). The scenario calls for a U.S. Army Special Forces strike against a strategic target in China. But when thousands of students are massacred in Tiananmen Square during democracy protests, the rules change. Meng, the computer genius behind the SIM program, sees a way to avenge a hatred that had been festering for over 20 years, and tip the scales of freedom. With the push of a button on his master computer, simulation becomes a reality: the Dragon mission is actually launched.

3. Publisher’s Weekly.
“A pulsing technothriller. A nail-biter
in the best tradition of adventure
fiction.”

4. High Praise for Dragon Sim-13

wracking. Mayer’s tough, businesslike soldiers again
include a tough, businesslike female.”

14. I wrote The Green Berets: Dragon Sim-13 while living in South Korea, en route
to earning my black belt in Taekwondo— one can only work out so many hours
in a day so I started writing when I wasn’t in the Dojang; or doing other stuff
when called to active duty. Note the airfield (Camp Page) in the foreground—
Blackhawks and an Attack Helicopter Battalion. I trained on the top of that
mountain in the background after we’d run up it. In the snow. Yes. It was cold.
The idea was based on a mission my A-Team had conducted so I could focus
on the writing, since I knew much of the story.
