This is a very personal history of one man's experiences and those of his family during World War II. From hometown to Pearl Harbor on to Officer Candidate School and the European Theater of Operations, Lou Stephenson saw the war through the eyes of medics and hospital staff caring for some of the most severely wounded in both Pacific and European theaters. And yet, he focused most often on the escapes from war - officer's parties, leave time in foreign countries, and the love he shared with Dorie, his darling wife.
