Vanishing Soldiers takes place on a southern Army post where there are thousands of men; a part of that number are always in transit. Men arrive, they are processed into the Army, they are trained, and they are shipped out. More arrive. Some fall through the cracks and never seem to get where they are supposed to be. Men, particularly young men, are a plentiful commodity, so no one notices if a few get lost along the way. A young military policeman’s girlfriend shows him a collection of news clippings about soldiers that have disappeared while stationed at his post. The articles pique his interest, particularly after further investigation reveals that almost every one of them was colored. He has stumbled upon one of the crimes of the century, but will he find the answers he is searching for? Or will he join the ranks of vanishing soldiers?
