My Blog

Retirement. Publishers, thank you for the many years of reading pleasure you gave me, but all good things must come to an end. Due to failing eyesight I am forced to retire. I can no longer review your books, and any that you send will be donated to the local library, unread. Do not send any more. I can only read for a couple hours every day, and this does not allow me to finish a book in reasonable time. I will be devoting time to my own books from now on, and reading on a personal level. Books that interest me. I prefer paperbacks and hardbacks, not eBooks. My eyesight has been failing the last few years, and I cannot handle hundreds of review books any more. My books are still available for review. Anyone interested in reviewing any of them, they are found in the Link to Tom’s Books On Amazon. Contact me for pdf copies at fadingshadows40@gmail.com

Cold War Reunion

The May 13th weekend, a bunch of old Army grunts got together in South Texas for a reunion after 45 years. A group of us went into town for a steak dinner. From left to right, Rich (Italian boy), me, Roger Egdorf, Earl Hibbs, and John Runion. Roger and I made a career in the military, he went through OCS and retired a major. He was in the 1968 Tet in Vietnam. We were both at the same area in Vietnam, but I was there in 1969 and '70. He was there in 1967 and '68. The other guys in the picture were one term only, and we served together in France in the early 1960s.
