This is the story of a career soldier who spent most of his time in a relatively unknown speciality - a broadcaster with the Armed Forces Radio & Television Service. The author's personal and professional life are artfully woven into a tale that will not only demand your interest, but will introduce you to a largely unknown, very dedicated group of men and women who had a huge, positive impact on the morale of our Armed Forces overseas. You'll be taken through the art of painting pictures in peoples' ears, tearful encounters with lonely GIs, the civilan media's exploitation of attitudes during the Vietnam War, the thrill of encouraging young minds, and one man's methods of overcoming adversity. And the best part? It's all true!" -- Captured from back cover.
