The Commander In Chief's Trophy 2nd Edition: Desert Storm The Beginning of the Air Assault by Paul H. D'AnnaIn 1959, Paul D’Anna read about West Point cadets attempting to make off with the Naval Academy’s mascot Bill the Goat. Since then, he has followed other similar accounts and was inspired to blend them all together in a book. For, while America’s different military academies are rightly prestigious and highly disciplined institutions, students there still have a campus life. They have sports rivalries and a sense of youthful camaraderie like any other school in the country. Against this backdrop, there are still plenty of intriguing and humorous stories to tell.Paul is a happy and content retiree who has had quite an extensive career in technology. He graduated with a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering from LSU, which landed him jobs at IBM, Shell Oil, and Exxon Mobil. Today, he spends his days gardening and writing down interesting tales for publishing. Aside from technology, he is also fascinated by the going-ons in the U.S. military, such as contemporary events like Operation Desert Storm as well as the less-talked-about life among students at the country’s various (and prestigious) military academies.https://www.readersmagnet.com/ product/the-commander-in- chiefs-trophy-2nd-addition- paperback/https://www.pauldannabooks. com/http://www. bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/ twia/5825phdr.mp3
