The man, the myth, the legend, Bob Barker of The Price is Right fame passed August 26, 2023, at the age of 99.

We often forget the heroics of our veterans in WWII. I love the story about a WWII pilot who shot down 6 Japanese bombers in one mission. He was declared an ace on his first mission.

The are many more stories that have been forgotten, but I interviewed four WWII veterans for my new book, and they are amazing. Each one had a near death experience. They didn’t do anything heroic, but put their lives on the line.

The book is called, Signs of Hope for the Military: In and Out of the Trenches of Life.

North Korea is doing everything they can start a war. Just doesn’t make sense. They have a mighty ground force, but the rest is lacking. With Japan, South Korea, and the US working together it will be a very short war.

If they use nuclear weapons the war will be over in a day.

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.)
