"I Heard My Country Calling is emblematic of many other Americans'
life stories, reflecting a sense of honor and patriotism that
thankfully knows no generational bounds."-- "Pittsburgh
Tribune-Review"
"I Heard My Country Calling rings with unvarnished dictums . . .
Without flinching, he tells us of the grisliness and heroism he
witnessed as a Marine in Vietnam. . . . his narrative offers an

independence was more important than money or power. . . .
riveting."-- "Washington Independent Review of Books"
