  Thursday, October 12, 1967. 
  Marine Lance Corporal Kevin Cahill stepped onto a trail deep in the remote Hai Lang National Forest of South Vietnam. Following Cahill were the 166 Marines of Charlie Company, First Battalion, First Marines, First Marine Division. Confident, well armed and ready to fight, their mission was to locate and annihilate any North Vietnamese Army forces they could find. 
  Cahill, a sharp and experienced point man, knew that taking the well-worn and ominous trail was a bad idea, but an order was an order and he led Charlie Company forward. It was a decision that would cost the 19-year-old his life. As he took a step to his left, toward a small knoll, Cahill walked right into the blast of a machine gun and the column of men he led suddenly faced decimating grenade and small- arms fire. 
  Rather than Charlie Company finding the enemy, the NVA, over two thousand men strong, had found Charlie Company. Surrounded, outnumbered, out-gunned, and quickly running out of ammunition, the Marines now faced annihilation and hell on earth under the jungle canopy. 
  Would the men of Charlie Company survive? How could they hope to beat back a vastly superior enemy force set on their complete destruction? Who would ever live to tell the tale of the “Lions of Medina”?

  Righteous Renegades: Once Hidden Heroes of the Holocaust 
  By Quentin Drummond Anderson 
  As the Nazi regime tightened its grip across Europe, four diplomats waged a silent battle with bureaucracy itself. Chiune Sugihara, Raoul Wallenberg, Varian Fry, and Aristides de Sousa Mendes defied their governments to save thousands during the Holocaust. 
  The Nazi genocide operated through meticulous documentation and legal decrees. Escape required someone willing to break these very rules. 
  Japanese consul Sugihara issued thousands of unauthorized transit visas from Lithuania. Swedish diplomat Wallenberg arrived in Budapest in 1944, using forged documents and safe houses to rescue Hungarian Jews. American journalist Fry transformed an assignment in Vichy France into a covert rescue operation for intellectuals and refugees. Portuguese consul Sousa Mendes granted visas to thousands in Bordeaux against direct orders. 
  Their heroism came at tremendous cost. Some faced professional ruin, while others vanished into Soviet captivity. Recognition as Righteous Among the Nations came decades later. 
  Through gripping storytelling and extensive research, Anderson examines the ethical dilemmas these men confronted. Each was bound by government duty yet found moral courage to disobey. The book explores power structures, bureaucratic indifference, and how a single signature determined life or death. 
  More than historical account, Righteous Renegades reflects on individual responsibility within systems of power. In today's world of refugee crises and political oppression, these lessons remain profoundly relevant. 
  For readers of Erik Larson, Deborah Lipstadt, and Timothy Snyder, this essential addition to Holocaust literature poses a timeless question: When faced with injustice, would you have the courage to act?
