Life, like the sea, is a vast and unpredictable journey. It is filled with moments of calm, punctuated by storms that test our resilience, and guided by unseen currents that shape who we become.

This book is not just a recount of my time as a veteran, though my years in the Navy form its backbone. It is a reflection on how the principles learned in service-discipline, courage, and a deep respect for others-have shaped the person I am today. ...
Life, like the sea, is a vast and unpredictable journey. It is filled with moments of calm, punctuated by storms that test our resilience, and guided by unseen currents that shape who we become. In this memoir, Sailor's Compass, I invite you aboard to sail with me through the waters of a life defined by service, culture, and unwavering commitment. This book is not just a recount of my time as a veteran, though my years in the Navy form its backbone. It is a reflection on how the principles learned in service-discipline, courage, and a deep respect for others-have shaped the person I am today. My experiences range from harrowing moments on the battlefield to quieter lessons learned through cross-cultural encounters, compassionate service, and the bonds of family and friendship that have anchored me through it all. For over sixty years, my life has been intertwined with that of my wife, Hideko. Together, we have navigated the challenges of cultural differences and personal growth, drawing strength from our shared journey. Her unwavering support and partnership have been my true north, guiding me through both calm and tumultuous waters. In these pages, you'll find stories of hope, hardship, and humor-moments that have made me reflect on what it means to serve, not only as a soldier but as a husband, a father, and a friend. You'll read about the lessons learned in foreign lands, the compassion forged through connection, and the compass that has always pointed me toward a life of meaning and purpose. As you read Sailor's Compass, I hope you find that it is not just a story of one man's journey but a testament to the idea that, in the face of uncertainty, we can all find our bearings through commitment to something greater than ourselves. Whether you're a veteran, a spouse, or simply someone seeking direction in life, this memoir is for anyone who has ever navigated their own seas and come out stronger for it. Welcome aboard. May this story help guide you on your own voyage.
