Adventures of a Tennessean

This book contains a large number of stories that were told to me as a young boy growing-up in Tennessee about the many adventures that my father experienced while serving in the United States Navy. Many of these stories cover specific events that my father participated in during the Korean Armed Conflict. The events and opinions contained within the individual stories represent those verbalized by my father. These stories contain rich and colorful language and they reflect a United States Navy sailor's life during the mid-20th Century. My father like all good story tellers molded the events and experiences from his life into his stories to captivate the audience as well as create a larger than life version of what took place. Collectively these stories provide insight into the thoughts and concerns of the generation of Americans that fought in the Korean Armed Conflict.
