Ahhhhh...the memories... but that was a long time ago.
Well, I do plan to keep writing, and God willing will some day be able to do it on a more full time basis. We see though. The next book will probably begin recording later in the spring and come out in late summer. At least that's the plan for now.
Yes, I do live in the great state of Alaska and can't imagine living anywhere else for very long. Salt Jacket was actually based on the town I was born in.
I did serve in the military, USMC. Like many young guys I had visions of glory and an image of a 30 year career, retiring as a sergeant major, or maybe if I got selected for OCS as a colonel. Alas my reality was very short...two mashed ankles and torqued knees sent me home in less than a year in 1988. Ten years of repeated attempts to reenlist ended with nothing.
I did spend three years as a sergeant in the Alaska State Defense Force, 492nd Coastal Scouts. My unit's AO was the coast and islands around Whittier right after 9/11. I had the distinct of being named Alaska Soldier of the Year for the ASDF in 2003. Aaron Michaels in the book was based on that experience.
Anyway, glad you asked and glad you recognized the scenery in 65 Below.
Ish show the man around the ship.
