THIS Was Wonderful

Revisado: 01-31-23

Harry is Wonderful in reading this. I am SO Glad to HEAR this book. I got to Genuinely Hear him say the words & that makes a suprising difference ~ It's Personal. And for What Harry IS Saying about the Royal Family, their responce to his words ~ Mirrors Exactly what he says. He said ~ They Tell On Themselves. He's right. I have to add that I have been baraged by msgs from The Royal Newsletter to subscribe to hear Each Royals story. Charles will give his side. I can't help but wonder if they got Harry's database of followers.

THE MOST IMPORTANT BOOK OF 2020

Revisado: 08-23-20

iT'S HOLDS that place because - this is a View from Inside the Family. And that picture is REVEALING! Mary Trump is Not someone who is Only Opinionated, She has a Ph.D. And INSIDE a Family, always gives more insight than when a person is completely grown and presumedly matured.

I believe this book should be considered Preparation For Voting in 2020. I Know This, People who Don't Hear what Mary has to say & Vote for Him anyway when they Find Out what's IN This Book ~ They Will KICK Themselves! Don't make that mistake!

LISTEN to This & PLAN HOW You are Going To Deliver YOUR VOTE!

WWII IN MY Family HISTORY

Revisado: 08-23-20

I ask My Dad that Boomer generational Q., "What did You do in the War, Daddy?" His answer was, "Oh, I was just on a Crash Boat." Of course, that was followed by, "What does a Crash Boat do, Daddy?", which was followed with, "Oh, it goes around saving people." Somehow, at 2 1/2, I knew ~ in the middle of people killing each other, My Dad was 'Saving People'! You couldn't have a higher calling than that in war! In later years I have walked up to and looked up at the bow of the USS Wisconsin, and I understood what he meant!

Now, I am researching everything I can on the Solomon Island and PT & Crash Boats, not only was my Dad in theater but I also had an Uncle, who was a US Marine and fought on Guadala Canal & Iwo Juma. So, History. And, I found this book fascinating.

It summed up key points of the book that I felt Leon specifically identified for this analysis. I didn't enjoy the readers voice. Sorry about that.

The Final Chapter on Deep Throat

Revisado: 08-19-20

My Favorite Movie is 'All the Presidents Men'. This is the behind-the-scenes that includes the Final Chapter of Deep Throat ~ His reveal. At 86 his memory preserved some secrets for eternity that perhaps are just as well lost with no inconvenience to history or truth. Beyond US Knowing, the BEST Part was HIS Knowing WE KNEW & IT WAS OK! He was Safe. His family was safe and HE WAS A HERO! BRAVO!

MY Uncle Fought on Iwo ...

Revisado: 02-21-20

So, I Listened intently for his name and even though his sir-name was Williams, I knew him as, Uncle Bill. I do remember him telling me, when I was very little, that Bill wasn't his real name. They had named him something he didn't like, so he had everyone call him, Bill. I will have to look up the information of my Mother's side, to confirm. What I remember of him was ~ first, his Size. He had huge hands. He had graduated from Ole Miss and play all the sports, football, basketball and baseball. My Mom said it was an injurie that happened during a basketball game and that ended a likely & promising, athletic career. I remember seeing a picture of him in Green Utilities with 1st LT bars. His Gov Standard headstone says he was Capt. And according a memory I have of talking to my cousin at his passing, they got his Birthdate MO WRONG on his Headstone. I don't believe anyone has seen to correcting that. After my graduation from Hight School, I enlisted in the USMC. My Permeant Duty Station was HQ Co, Base Comm, Camp Pendleton, 5th Mar Div. I am interested to learn everything I can about the battle and hopefully, somethings about his participation in it. I am Very Proud to have 'Stood-On-His-Shoulders'. I love him very much.

It Ended Too Soon...

Revisado: 01-10-20

The Title immediately caught my eye, being of-an-age, as they say. Although his intersections with 'LT Kennedy' were not as frequent as I had hoped, authenticity lent brevity depth. Beyond that, my father fought on a Crash Boat in the Solomon's, at the same time. So, the first hand account of everyday life on those islands, how many islands there were, was fascinating to me.

A Worthy Read ...

Revisado: 12-07-19

I remember seeing Leon Panetta on TV, CSpan, and trusting the man. I watched as he rose in the ranks and fought some of the fights he waged. I liked the man. He wasn't from Texas, where I live, but I would have voted for him had he been on a national ticket. And...then I heard His memories of CIA, it confirmed much of my impressions from afar about the times, the front-seat view and backstage entre provided and ... my Final Decision IS ... Again ... I Trust Him. I Am Grateful HE Choose Public Service and I will See-To-IT ~ His work is passed On to the Future Generations of My Family with copies of this Audio Book! They Need to Know This Stuff. And, Leon Panetta, is a Role Model. Thank You, Sir, for Everything and this Christmas Gift, too!
