Reaching for the Sky is a powerful and inspiring memoir that chronicles the life and career of Tom Storey from his early childhood shaped by World War II influences to his adventurous years in the U.S. Navy, and ultimately to a remarkable career in broadcasting.
Through vivid storytelling, the author shares first-hand experiences of serving aboard aircraft carriers during the Vietnam era, navigating dangerous flight deck operations, and witnessing history unfold. The journey continues into civilian life, where persistence, timing, and resilience lead him into the competitive world of radio and television broadcasting in Los Angeles.
From humble beginnings and career setbacks to becoming an airborne news reporter covering major events from above, this memoir captures the highs and lows of a life driven by courage and opportunity. Along the way, it reflects on family, love, personal growth, and the importance of seizing life’s “sliding door” moments that can change everything.
Rich with real-life stories, historical moments, and behind-the-scenes insights into media and military life, this book is both a personal legacy and an प्रेरational account of chasing dreams against the odds.
