Outnumbered 20 to 1

By William P Collier

Book Overview

Outnumbered 20 to 1 story is a force that transcends ages. Through the development of humankind's culture, the holy vessel of story has exerted a power that defines generations. A good story has the ability to entertain; a great story has the ability to inspire. But a story like Outnumbered 20 to 1 possesses the ability to transform, and so much more.

Now retired, Colonel Bill Collier fought firsthand through the devastation and brutality of the Vietnam war. And like many of his fellow soldiers that returned home, he kept many of the stories of his experiences to himself. However, there is one story that Collier knew must be shared in his lifetime. This is the story of his harrowing experience at The Battle of Mo Duc -- one of Vietnam's final battles leading up to the signing of a peace agreement that would conclude the war.

The Battle of Mo Duc follows then-Major Bill Collier and his team into a hopelessly unwinnable situation with all of the odds stacked against them. Yet even as they stared down their seemingly certain defeat, Collier and his men persevered to victory through what can only be described as the grace of God Himself.

Outnumbered 20 to 1 is a one-of-a-kind war story and so much more. It's a recounting of a remarkable life experience that occurs even less frequently than once in a lifetime. Collier's story is not only a story of perseverance and heroism but of our communion with the divine fabric of existence itself.
