Publisher's summary

Serving with distinction in the military may earn you medals and promotions, but it also earns you more headaches. The reward for a job well done is more work, and our hero Cecil is discovering that as the new project officer for P.U.S.S., or Project for Utilization of Sentient Species, the Australian Army’s newest effort to integrate uplifted animals into combat and support units. Not only does he have to ride herd on a force of felonious wombats and a detachment of deadly mongeese, the newest addition of uplifted Australian indigenous species may prove to be his biggest challenge yet or just the remedy for ARM’s latest threat.

The action is bloody and the stakes have never been higher as Cecil and his cohorts stand up… Platypus Platoon.

Great follow up story

Fun and imaginative. Kelly has always had a way with words. Starting with his more serious early work and EMS Newbie podcast, it is not that much of a stretch to this weird world of sentient battle animals.

Wombat Prime Approves!

Well Kelly told me that he was putting me into one of his upcoming stories and it has finely floated up to the top of my queue. I must admit that I enjoyed the story. I’ve read the earlier stories in this series and I enjoyed them greatly. This one is no disappointment. It is as good or better than the previous ones and expands on this universe very well. In my not so humble opinion, it is certainly worth your time. Do recommend.
And now I need to get a “Wombat Prime” name tag for my next con.

Another great Story

These are great military short stories with a sci fi twist to it. I can really feel the soldier's life come through the words.

The virtual voice is not as good as a human voice actor. But the story is just great.
