<p><span style=color: rgba(15 17 17 1); background-color: rgba(255 255 255 1)>Wings of Honor: The Chronicles and International Influence of A Military Family by Frank L. Lewis is an absorbing memoir that chronicles the indelible trip of a military family across generations. From World War II to Vietnam and beyond this book incorporates an intensely subjective record of global history. The story begins with the author's father a decorated bomber pilot patrolling deadly skies over Europe and a mother whose wartime service sculpted her future. Their legacy of duty affects the author's own path - from Naval Reserve Officer's Training Corps (ROTC) at Rice University to Piloting Naval ships across Southeast Asia and the Mediterranean during international political unrest and the Cold War. This account analyzes battlefields and military strategy and examines the effects of service on family identity and the objective of knowledge. With rich narration Lewis brings to life not just war's challenges but also its unforeseen lessons-about leadership companionship and the search for a greater purpose. This book commends to those who serve corresponding history experience and a profound sense of responsibility.</span></p>
