A Man of Honor

A Story That Lives Beyond These Pages
I wrote this book not only for him, but for everyone who
seeks to understand what true honor looks like.
To share with the world the life of a man of honor-whose
example teaches us that courage is not about never being afraid,
but about loving something-someone-so much that you face
every fear to protect them.
I hope as you read this story, you will not only see the life of my
father but also fi nd refl ections of your own fathers, mothers,
brothers, and sisters-those who have fought quietly
to keep us safe, who have sailed through life's roughest seas
without complaint.
This book is for him-but it is also for you, the reader, so
that his lessons of love, sacrifice, and honor can live on.
