This book is looking for a home, for a publisher. The cover was designed by my sister-in-law and represents the heart of this important book.
Three in the morning on October 23, 1962, the men of Marine squadron VMF-122 flew their fighter jets armed with sidewinder missiles toward Key West, Florida. Forty-five years later, Carol Troestler, wife of one of the pilots, recounts historic events that could have led to World War III. Others have contributed stories of what some have called the most dangerous time in all of history. Many books have been written about the Cuban Missile Crisis in the past. This is one for today, focused on the pilots, their endeavors and how they fit in with the grave happenings of the world, told from the perspective of a woman who loved one of them and honors all those who were ready to fight the ultimate war and in doing so helped prevent it from occurring.
