Two Centuries of Valor is the first fully comprehensive historical account of the 5th United States Infantry Regiment. It chronicles the one hundred ninety-nine years of active service of the regiment as it fought in most of its nation's wars from the War of 1812 to the War on Terror, and during its many years of peacetime service from the Minnesota wilderness to the Sinai Peninsula. The information was derived from earlier regimental histories, monthly command and after-action reports, award citations, archived newspaper accounts, biographical sources and correspondence with dozens of living veterans from World War II to men who are currently on active duty. It is a story of courage, sacrifice, and missions accomplished.

About the Author
Kier, Samuel Martin: - Following graduation from Stanford University, Sam Kier was immediately drafted into the U. S. Army. He completed basic training at Fort Ord and was assigned to the 5th Infantry Regiment. During much of his time on active duty, he served as the regimental troop information and education NCO. One of his responsibilities was to update the regimental history and see that it became part of the troop education program. Following his separation from the army, Kier completed a Ph. D. in educational psychology at the University of Arizona and worked in the public schools of California for forty-years as a classroom teacher, school psychologist, director of special education and professor of education. Now retired, he is a life member of the 5th Infantry Regiment Association and a founding sponsor of the National Museum of the United States Army. Sam met his wife, Betty, while he was stationed at Fort Lewis, Washington. They reside in Pacific Grove, California.
