Rating:  Summary: A Gentleman Warrior Review: Events occur in the course of ones life that lead us on paths that we do not anticipate or choose. Heroes Cry Too is a tale of a young man who excelled in the service to his country in World War II as one of the first US Army Rangers. Warren Evans started life in rural Minnesota during the Depression. Raised by his mother, Warren was forced to grow up quickly, earning an income to supplement the families finances. Finding his way, often on his own, Warren ended up at South Dakota State on a football scholarship. To earn additional spending money, he joined the National Guard. On December 7, 1941, everything changed. Whether it was academics, athletics or work commitments, Warren was driven to excel at what ever task was in front of him. This lead him to be the best of the best in the Army, the Rangers. It also lead him into unimaginable peril and anguish. The recounting of Warren Evan's life is the tale of a ever humble unassuming man, who through the worst of human experiences remained loyal to his God, his country and his love, Francis. I have known Warren all of my life and I can say that you will never meet a more humble, gentle, generous man. Reading this book will lead you to be even more grateful for the sacrifices of those men who paid dearly for our freedoms.
