Dan Kemp was a history major at Ole Miss then a combat veteran infantryman in the Army’s 101st Airborne Division. After graduate school at Norwich, he partly reinvented himself writing military science fiction and alternative history. His primary body of work is the Athenaeum Inc. military thriller series at Cannon Publishing, which began as “a thinly veiled Kelly’s Heroes ripoff” and now is in its fifth volume. Dan’s short stories have appeared in anthologies at Raconteur Press, Defiant House, Bayonet Press, and in two military alt-history collections.
