His curiosity for history was sparked at a young age by his father, a retired Marine and Vietnam Vet, whose passion for genealogy extends back decades. Erik's study of history continued into college, when he took countless extra courses 'for fun', leading into his professional writing career, which include co-writing the graphic novel D-Day: Storming Fortress Europefor Osprey Publishing. Gordon L. Rottman entered the US Army in 1967, volunteered for Special Forces and completed training as a weapons specialist. He served in the 5th Special Forces Group in Vietnam in 1969-70 and subsequently in airborne infantry, long-range patrol and intelligence assignments until retiring after 26 years. He was a Special Operations Forces scenario writer at the Joint Readiness Training Center for 12 years and is now a freelance writer, living in Texas.
