He planned to enter college on a football scholarship after he completed his service. The Japanese had other plans and after December 7, 1941, John found that he was in the army for the duration. Trained to fly C-47 transports, John found himself in the South Pacific for 18 months and won the Distinguished Flying Cross and 16 Air Medals. After the war he returned home, raised a family, and lived an honorable life. Only in recent years has he felt the need to examine his life and try to find patterns and meaning within it. This book is about the search for that meaning. The Greeks believed that only at sunset could the day be evaluated. Only at the end of life, could its significance be appreciated. Standard edition with Black & White photos, maps, and illustrations.
