About this listen

Sgt. Print Davis is reluctant to retire his trusted revolver until his MP squad is tasked with participating in the 1911 tests being held by the Army in their quest for a new semi-automatic service pistol. He becomes a convert of the new weapon. Afterward, John Browning, its inventor, gives him the Colt pistol used in the trials.

Print carries the gun in combat in Mexico as his regiment chases Pancho Villa, then through World War I where his prowess with the number one saves his life and others time after time against the Germans. Later, he uses the pistol in South America in a rescue mounted to save some Americans from revolutionists. Then Davis is posted to China where he soon needs all his skills and determination to survive!

Although a work of fiction, this novel is dedicated to the Medal of Honor recipients whose citations were earned with the use of the pistol. Their factual stories of valor are woven between the chapters of Lloyd’s tale.
