Synopsis

THE AUTHOR DESCRIBES HIS EARLY YEARS SURVIVING THE AIR RAIDS WHICH DESTROYED BOTH HIS SCHOOL AND HOME IN FRANKFURT, GERMANY DURING WORLD WAR II, BEFORE IMMIGRATING TO THE US.



In 1960, he joined the Department of Defense Dependents Schools as a young teacher taking him on an eighteen-day ship ride across the Pacific to his first assignment. Serving in various educational positions, he describes his life on Okinawa, returning to his native Germany where he witnessed both the fall of the Wall and the reunification in Berlin; living thirty miles from the treacherous North Korean border in Seoul; supervising a 6,200-mile school district out of Adana, Turkey and winding up his 45-year career residing near Venice, Italy.
