This memoir is an adventure story and spiritual journey of the author from birth to the present. Join him in his growing up years in South Dakota during the Great Depression. The book has many household moves during grade school and high school and later in military life. He enjoyed sports and was captain of the basketball teams in high school and at Bethel College in St. Paul, Minnesota. Leaving college in his third year he entered flight training as an aviation cadet in Pensacola, Florida. After commissioning as a Naval officer and designated a Naval aviator many interesting operational assignments followed such as honing his flying skills on the windy icy runways of the Aleutian Islands, missions during the Viet Nam War and other deployments to Japan, Iceland and Sicily. Retirement after more than 28 years of service flying high in the sky as a pilot sent him to a higher level as he went into full time service for the Lord. Using teaching as an entree into the Peoples Republic of China, he and his wife spent 4 and 1/2 years teaching and sharing their faith there and one semester doing the same in Myanmar (Burma). Many interesting descriptions depict China as a poor and inward thinking nation back in 1990 when they first arrived. However, a thirst for the God they did not know about was evident. Rejoice with the author and his wife as they share how many young people came to know the Lord and lives were changed. Many of these Chinese brothers and sisters are still in contact with them. The final conclusion is both inspiring and thought provoking. Author Bio:
