Beschreibung

It is Danny's first morning back home in Rattle Snake Cove, where he is continuing a lengthy recovery from extensive injuries which he incurred in Vietnam that had resulted in his receiving The Silver Star, and also a medical retirement. Ring! Ring! "I'll get it," Danny shouted to Maggie Ann, who was somewhere in the kitchen. "Where's my walking stick?" Spying her husband's cane near his chair at the table she called, "I'll bring it to you, Hon." A few minutes later she asked, "Who was that?" Looking puzzled, Danny said, "Somebody named Patsy. She said she's looking forward to seeing me next week. She said she's flying all her people down to see me on her plane. Who's Patsy?" Remembering the doctor's suggestion to keep Danny calm, Maggie Ann thought quickly and said, "Oh, you poor dear. Let me put a record on our new stereo record player (she emphasized 'new stereo record player.') I bet you'll know who that was when you hear it. then."

Autor

About the Author David R. Carney retired from the U.S. Army and Alabama Army National Guard as a Senior Non-Commissioned Officer and is also a retired banker. He spent seven years in Europe and has travelled to over thirty countries around the world. Carney is an author and is able to draw on his rich background of diverse international experiences to write his books. He was raised in a dysfunctional family and lived in homes across the nation while attending many schools, and as such, he became a high school dropout who later attended eight years of college and university earning four degrees, all with highest honors, including an MBA from the University of Alabama in Huntsville.  Carney has been very instrumental in the military veteran's community, often speaking at events as well as organizing events for deployed service members and their families. He has been recognized by the U.S. Army and also by his community for his many military and veteran activities. For his support to the National Guard the Adjutant General of the Alabama National Guard awarded him the Distinguished Service Medal of Alabama, the highest award presented by the Alabama National Guard. He has also been presented the key to five Alabama cities for support to their service members. According to a recent Huntsville Times (Alabama) article a photo of him is "What Volunteers Look Like."  A Redstone Arsenal Rocket front page article about him said he is a "People Person Dedicated to Service." The Association of the United States Army (AUSA) Redstone Huntsville Chapter voted Carney and his wife, Judith, to be their Volunteer Family of the Year 2019. They won the same award at the Third Region, AUSA (nine states and territories across the southeast). David is on the Board of the Huntsville Madison County Veterans Memorial and as such co-wrote a book about the Memorial which has been widely received across the area. Although now retired, he is still writing novels and how-to-do books. He lives in the small town of New Market, Alabama with his wife, Judith, and their two cats. Judith is also a published author.
