| About the Book
Most people adapt their lives to natural cycles. Joe adapted his
to a need for support, service, and defense. A soldier in World War
II, the Korean War, and Vietnam, he earned seven Purple Hearts for
wounds received, among many other medals and honors.
Filled with sensational beginnings and extreme changes, Joe’s true
story begins with D-Day, WW II, and goes on to dramatic experiences --
serving with the 101st Airborne during World War II, liberating Nazi
concentration camps, being a Nurem-berg witness, serving a call to
duty in Korea, standing guard in Dallas when President Kennedy was
shot, and serving in Vietnam, where he was a prisoner of war and
suffered extreme torture. Trimmed with historical facts and pictures,
the stories of Joe’s life are tales of survival, and of what one man
can do.
