Sea Stories: Definitely Not Fairy Tales (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Everyone knows the old adage of military life, hours and hours of unadulterated boredom sandwiched between seconds of sheer terror. But not everyone knows of the more humorous side of military life as described in the nautical expression "Sea Stories". The stories in this collection show another side of military life. Sailors find a way to get around obstacles, deal with the seemingly impossible, and get some satisfaction out of life; although not always by the most conventional route. This collection of stories follows a fictitious junior officer on a hilarious journey from ensign to lieutenant commander on three ships, a little liberty, and with a great deal of help from his fellow officers, chiefs, and sailors. As every sailor knows there are two types of stories; fairy tales that begin with "Once upon a time..", and sea stories that begin much differently. These are sea stories, definitely not fairy tales.

Autorenporträt

Henri Duffy has led a very active professional life. He spent 20 years in the military as an active duty and reserve naval officer; and another 20 in higher education as a faculty member, dean, vice-president, and president. He has also led a Chamber of Commerce and served as a senior manager in state government.

Currently he lives in the northwest near the ocean with his wife, cat, and dog. He sees the ocean every day and chases fish when the weather is nice and occasionally catches one or two.

As you can see, he isn't much for having his picture published.
