Description
At an early age, I discovered that I was not a farmer, and thanks to my father's insistence, I discovered the Merchant Marine and found a home there. Unfortunately, that was short-lived.-the war ended, and it was back to the farm? No, that was not for me! The Army sounded fine for a lost soul, but it got me into another war where I rose to the rank of Staff Sergeant as I toured Europe until honorably discharged. My military service helped me with twenty-five years of gainful employment and experience in the rocket and space business until retirement and dreaming of publishing this book in later years that have finally come. To those who read this and didn't finish schooling, go back, or look at those ten fingers and say, "Teach me what I need to know to succeed"
