Produktbeschreibung

What on earth is a medical diver? Someone who practices medicine underwater? Leonard Starbeck served for over 28 years in the U.S. Navy and Marines, and in this fascinating memoir he answers that very question. Follow along as he tells stories of his many adventures travelling the world as an Independent Medical Diver (DMT/IDC) and a tactical medic, and more recently as a surgical nurse and Merchant Marine Medical Service Officer. Read how he dealt with harrowing medical emergencies associated with diving and high pressure conditions from deep ocean dives to the top of 12,000 foot mountains looking for unexploded bombs. On any given day he could be sailing, diving, shooting, or parachuting out of a plane, on duty as a medical corpsman, a boat driver, a marine mammal tech, a dive instructor, a gofer, a chauffeur, and a gardener. Buckle up and enjoy the stories of his incredible adventures.

Autorenporträt

A native of Northern California, Leonard Starbeck followed family tradition and after high school he joined the Navy, travelling around the world many times over as a navy medical diver. After 35-plus exciting years with the U.S. Navy and working as a government contractor in San Diego and in 39 foreign countries, Starbeck and his wife moved to Park City, Utah, where they had bought their very first home in Utah after buying a timeshare (Purchased Time Share in 1985) together over thirty-five years earlier. He built a wood shop and an art studio, and now he happily calls himself an artist, a writer, repurposing antiques, doing photography and woodworking, teaching work-shop classes and using abalone shells in creative ways.
