The Fascinating Autobiography Of Author J. Carlton Sharp (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781523650187)

A clearly "Must Have" book that presents the fascinating life of the author, from birth through seventy-five years of unending change and challenges. The molding of his life, morals, and family values were substantially provided by the YMCA, as both parents worked full-time. Three weeks at summer day-camp, and, a thirty-day canoe trip on the southern lakes of Ontario Province, proved his mettle; sleeping under the stars and seeing only a rare ski-plane, and Canadian wildlife with awe and respect. The most interesting years of education with teachers that had a lasting affect on his education; "mooning" (a fad in the 1950's, ) family chores such as (stoking an old coal furnace; beating a rug on the clothes line to rid the dust and dirt, and turning the wringer on an old washing machine to remove the water before hanging the garments on the clothes line.) An amazing eight-weeks of Army boot camp at Fort Jackson, South Carolina, during the Vietnam War ramp-up. Thirty-eight years of managerial growth at the National Security Agency; Seventy-six travels to foreign countries, and experiences learned, and shared in this book. Selection to attend the prestigious "Armed Forces Staff College, Norfolk, Virginia, Jan 1980-Jul 1980. Selected by LTG. William Oden, Director, NSA, and Elizabeth Rindskoph, NSA's General Council, to serve President Reagan, in the internal investigation of the White House involvement in the Iran/Contra Affair. He headed the Evidence Analysis team to insure no classified information would be inadvertently divulged during live International television coverage. Lastly, his service as a Deputy Inspector General for NSA field locations. His primary expertise was Telecommunications. This last assignment, caused him to announce to his wife that he was retiring at the end of August, 1998, as he could no longer work for a supervisor that would deliberately withhold a major communication "finding" (serious problem), from the Director of the National Security Agency.
