The chronicle of one man's journey from a small town in Pennsylvania's Appalachia through the US Marine Corps to flight school. He flew jets to naval aircraft carriers for landings and catapults, flew one hundred missions in Vietnam, and spent seven months in the jungle with the ground warriors. Upon retirement as a lieutenant colonel, he spent twenty years dividing his time between the life of a financial consultant and the teaching, handling, and participating in K-9 Search and Rescue. Now retired in West Florida, continuing his lifetime hobby of weightlifting, he recently set a world record. He shared this life with the love of his life, whom he met in fifth grade, and their love continues today.
