An Officer's Story (eBook, ePUB)

A Politico-Military Journey

Beschreibung

This book is an intellectual journey. It is based in the fundamental Middle-American values and opinions, good and bad, of the happy days of the fifties. These values and opinions are dragged kicking and screaming through a rich and varied set of experiences as a young man, amazingly, is nurtured and tolerated by a usually hidebound navy. The journey ends with summaries about Russia, US Military policy and strategy, and the prospects for the social and political turmoil in America.

Autor

Steve F. Kime, a retired navy captain, is not a cookie-cutter product of a military academy. He enjoyed an unusual career that led him from his roots in Indiana to submarine duty, a doctorate at Harvard, service in Russia during treaty negotiations and the shoot down of an airliner, and responsibilities in strategy, intelligence, and higher education. He pulls no punches in relating his Mid-America upbringing and the experiences of his unusual career to current social, political, and military issues.
