    About this ebook

    Born in the placid 1950s, raised in the turbulent 1960s, and come of age in the selfish 1970s, Sam Smaltz just wants to be left alone.
    But being sandwiched between the Greatest Generation and Gen X and the Millennials offers him no such comfort. As a Baby Boomer, he does not get to be a respected hero by fighting German and Japanese warriors during WW II or North Koreans invading South Korea. Instead, he leaves behind a stepson, Jack, who becomes just one more nameless, faceless hero whose story gets lost in the battle against international terrorism.
