So There I Was...Tales from the Flight Line (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780991682515)

"So There I Was...Tales from the Flight Line" is intended to offer a look through the window of my career in the Royal Canadian Air Force from 1981 through 2003. Beginning with life at the Canadian Forces Recruit School in Cornwallis, Nova Scotia the journey winds its way through the different air force squadrons that I was assigned to and finally landing at the point when I retired from active service. The people in this book are real as are the incidents that I witnessed however some of the "Tales" have been ethically sanitized as not to offend some parties. The last two chapters are dedicated to informing the reader how a callous Canadian government has systematically allowed the Canadian military, and more specifically the Royal Canadian Air Force slide into the procurement abyss and how the Canadian Armed Forces may be revived. Regimental Sargent-Major (Rtd) John Butler, of the British Royal Green Jackets Regiment, recommends that any young person who is thinking about joining the RCAF could not be briefed any better as to a type of career than by reading this book.
