edit data

Lee Boyland earned a degree in nuclear engineering, and a commission as a second lieutenant in the U.S. Army. After graduation, he entered active duty as an officer in the U.S. Army Ordnance Corps. A graduate of the U.S. Navy’s Explosive and Nuclear Ordnance Disposal Schools, Boyland was assigned to the Defense Atomic Support Agency in Albuquerque, NM. A member of DASA’s Nuclear Emergency Team responsible for nuclear weapons accidents, including the rendering safe of armed nuclear warheads, he had access to the design details of every nuclear and thermonuclear warhead developed by the United States through the Mark 63 warhead. His duties took him to the Nevada Test Site on many occasions (Clean Slate II, Pile Driver, Distant Plane). After l Lee Boyland earned a degree in nuclear engineering, and a commission as a second lieutenant in the U.S. Army. After graduation, he entered active duty as an officer in the U.S. Army Ordnance Corps. A graduate of the U.S. Navy’s Explosive and Nuclear Ordnance Disposal Schools, Boyland was assigned to the Defense Atomic Support Agency in Albuquerque, NM. A member of DASA’s Nuclear Emergency Team responsible for nuclear weapons accidents, including the rendering safe of armed nuclear warheads, he had access to the design details of every nuclear and thermonuclear warhead developed by the United States through the Mark 63 warhead. His duties took him to the Nevada Test Site on many occasions (Clean Slate II, Pile Driver, Distant Plane). After leaving the Army, he designed conventional and special ordnance, and demilitarized chemical weapons at Rocky Mountain Arsenal and Tooele Army Depot. He made the transition to hazardous waste management by applying aerospace combustion technology to incineration of Agent Orange.
He was a member of a 2003 U.S. technology exchange team that spent a month in China to transfer Medical Waste treatment technology and management methods to Chinese environmental officials.
The impact of the 9/11 attacks had a profound impact on him. Two years later it became apparent that America had missed the message delivered by the four airplanes: Fundamentalists Muslims had declared war on America. He began researching Islamic terrorism and quickly realized that a series of escalating attacks that began in 1983 in Leadon were not over, and that each attack had been larger than the last. This had to mean more and bigger attacks. A nuclear or biological attack. Using his knowledge of weapons, he wrote The Rings of Allah, a technological accurate and completely feasible story of a nuclear attack on America by Islamic terrorists.
The story was too big for one book, so it became the Clash-of-Civilizations, an award winning trilogy that is tells a story of the attack, America’s recovery and retribution, and lays the foundation for electing a new government (The Rings of Allah, Behold, an Ashen Horse, and America Reborn). novel in a new series dealing with drug cartels and pirates.

Pirates and Cartels, the first book of a spinoff series was been published in 2011.

He has just released his new book, Revolution 2016: Take back America.
