Gary Zelinksi : A Walk Among Heroes

from The Patricia Raskin Show

In A WALK AMONG HEROES: Searching for America's Better Angels Zelinski sheds light on how this hallowed ground and those buried there—privates beside colonels, surgeons and nurses bedside the troops they tried to save, the descendants of slaves beside Confederate soldiers, and wives, sons, and daughters beside loved ones who made the ultimate sacrifice—serves as a lens into what is good in our country. Gary B. Zelinski will share and discuss the inspiring stories behind the headstones. ABOUT GARY B. ZELINSKI Gary Zelinski is retired from the United States Air Force after twenty-two years of distinguished service. He is currently working on a memoir dedicated to his wife, Lillian. She stole his heart when they met as teens, raised their two children, and rose through the ranks to become a vice president for a Fortune 500 tech company. Gary B. Zelinski married his childhood sweetheart, Lillian, at age eighteen. After he completed US Air Force basic military training, the couple moved from Southern California to Northeast Arkansas. He served on active duty for twenty-two years and retired after being promoted to Lieutenant Colonel. After the Air Force, Gary built a successful management consulting business. During his working years, he was a technical writer, editor, and speechwriter for senior executives. Besides writing, Gary enjoys traveling around the country with Lillian in their RV. They've visited all fifty states and seen all the national parks, including the eight in Alaska. Gary chronicles their travels on his Bound for Glory blog. https://garyzelinski.com/
