These are stories that I have carried around with me for some time now. Many of them were written out several years ago, some have been recently recalled and put to paper. I kept a “record”, or “log” or “diary” for the last part of my Air Force career, and I used that information for a lot of the writings in the book. Some of the events actually seemed as fresh as if they had happened yesterday, others as if I was reading fiction. I also kept a Navigator’s Log, and made a LOT of pictures. These have all provided tantalizing bits of sunshine and shadow.
One of the reasons for writing this book is to simply tell the stories. Another is the hope of generating response from other people who were either there at that time, or who had similar events they witnessed elsewhere.
The intention of this blog is to collect responses from readers of "Into the Sun". Let me know what you think about it, and I hope you will begin to write down some stories you lived through, and hopefully you can put several of them together and write your own book.
Anyone wishing to contact me can either respond to this blog or write me at johnhwomack@gmail.com
