conversations.value: Born in Chicago in 1947 I grew up listening to the stories my father and Uncles told of their experiences during World War II. The only time they spoke of the war was at family gatherings when in the company of other veterans and I was fascinated by the stories and sought the men out and listened. The stories sparked a lifelong interest in History and common men faced with the realities of war. I went on to serve in the United States Air Force, get married, father two children and make a carrier in Purchasing and New Product development for Brownells Inc. and Battenfield Technologies. Having attended Gunsmithing summer courses and worked in the firearms industry for over 25 years I learned a great deal about the subject. My writing career started with Magazine articles dealing with firearms restoration and repair and have appeared in several national magazines including Shotgun News, Shooting Times, and American Gunsmith. Always a storyteller, I have tried to combined my love of history, knowledge of firearms, and the stories my father and uncles shared into stories of my own. Today I live in Missouri with Cecile my wife of 45 years and our dog Amber. I consider myself blessed with two grown children and four grandchildren.

  Instrumental in my personal growth and in the progress of many, many students is certainly Master Paul Irvin, copresident of the Universal Taekwondo Federation, who personifies what it means to be a master in the martial arts. He, along with international instructor Bruce Helman, a true expert and great teacher, offered their encouragement with this project and their constructive criticism in an early draft. In addition, I express my gratitude to Master Eddie Truman, who offered his wide expertise to my students, helped open my mind, and remains my friend.
  In addition, my wife Michelle, my son Jack, and my daughter Chelsea have encouraged me in my teaching, maintained stability in our home when I have been instructing students or studying, and motivated me through the days and years of our lives together. They have enriched the meaning of love and family and have personified the seven warrior principles throughout their lives.
  Of course, I remain indebted to the entire team at Free Spirit Publishing. The creative and dedicated professionals there—especially my editor, Alison Behnke—have never wavered in their faith or their commitment. Working with them has been a joy and an inspiration. I also express my thanks to Austin Schlenker and Claire Hauge, two teen readers who provided their thoughtful and timely perspectives on.
