Autorenporträt
John J. Gebhart grew up on a dead end street in West Philadelphia and graduated from Monsignor Bonnor High School. In 1964, he quit St. Joseph's College after his sophmore year to join the Marines, his childhood dream, and spent September 1965 to September 1967 in Vietnam. Returning to St. Joseph's College in 1968, he graduated with a degree in Business Administration and started an employment service, which he still runs today. He also owns Iron Triangle Paintball Club, where famous battles from Vietnam are fought in bamboo forests and muddy swamps. He was inducted into the "Enlisted Combat Aircrew Roll of Honor" on November 14, 2003 aboard the USS Yorktown docked at Patriots Point in Charlestown, SC. He currently lives with his wife Betty and his German Shepard Corporal Logan in Zionsville, PA.
