It s a very disheartening time in Hawaii. The Island of Maui is engulfed with wild fires. Their Biggest city is destroyed. Over 50 people have died. Many more are expected.

The heart warming news is that the Coast Guard, and the National Guard are out there saving lives. The Coast Guard pulled in over ten people who were drowning in the water they had to jump into to save their lives.

These two branches don’t get their due very often. Thank you!!

I am in the process of interviewing a submariner. Not just any submariner, but a nuclear submariner. Incredible interview. This should be enough to buy my upcoming book, Signs of Hope for the Military: In and Out of the trenches of life.

I also talked to a Vietnam veteran who is deciding if he will allow me to interview him. He has an amazing story. (He had a bayonet go through both legs in an one on one fight.)

Keep coming back to find what new interviews I may be having. You can Also Subscribe at the top of this page, When you do all future posts will go directly to your inbox.
