A true hero
Want to meet a true hero? Charley Odom is one of the key characters in my book WAR BENEATH THE WAVES. The local TV station in his hometown did a profile on Charley this week, and I believe it is well worth watching.
That is not because they feature several pictures of my book (though I am thrilled to hear that Charley loved the book and recommends it to everyone he meets).
No, it is the simple fact that we are losing a thousand WWII veterans every day. I'm on a mission to not let their stories die with them. And it was an honor to be able to keep Charley's heroic night in the Makassar Strait--as well as all the other things he did on our behalf--in front of people.
