Teddy Bears to Dangerous Missions

Come aboard as the author takes you from his early childhood living in Miami before and during WWII to his years hopping among several grammar schools in the eastern United States. He served almost eight years in the US Navy Submarine Service. His description of life on long isolated sixty- to seventy-two-day deterrent Fleet Ballistic Missile (FBM) submarine patrols will give you an appreciation for the sacrifices still being made today by our US Navy Silent Service warriors. This autobiographical journey concludes with the author's transition to civilian life and a successful career living in the Washington, DC, area raising a family. The book is filled with over a hundred images illustrating the narrative. This is a must read for any military veteran or history buff.
