Thomas M. Bradley

Meet Thomas M. Bradley, a man whose life has been defined by service and the pursuit of truth. A retired U.S. Army Colonel with a distinguished thirty-year career, he commanded soldiers through eras of profound change, from the Cold War to the dawn of a new millennium. His leadership was forged in the rigors of infantry and logistics, marked by the prestigious Ranger Tab and the Legion of Merit.

But his mission of service did not end with his uniform. Answering a deeper call, Bradley was ordained as a Catholic deacon, dedicating his life to pastoral care, walking with families in grief, and offering hope to those struggling with addiction. This unique duality of soldier and shepherd informs his every word.

Now, as an author, he wields a pen with the same precision and purpose he once applied to military strategy. Bradley brings his firsthand understanding of command, his deep faith, and a historian’s rigor to unearth a story long overlooked. He does not just write history; he gives voice to the legacies of those who marched without applause, ensuring their valor is finally recognized.
