description: This is the life story of a Midwesterner who grew up on the 160-acre farm his grandparents homesteaded. It's about him going away to college, where he enrolled in mechanical engineering and was mandated to enter ROTC (Reserve Officers Training Corps). A few months after his graduation, he became a field artillery second lieutenant. He then began training as such in Washington, California, and Hawaii, before entering combat in the South Pacific and Korea. There he served with distinction in Guadalcanal, New Britain, the Philippines, and Korea. Reading this book places the reader at the scene of many World War II campaigns.
