More DescriptionMy place in the family is an engaging memoir filled with honesty, drama, patriotism and hope. Make this evrossing rhetorical journey with a man who was born into foster care from a white alcoholic mother and a black father whom he never knew. The United States military becomes his home-away from-home, and he serves with distinction for 22 years as a Hospital Corpsman in two elite services: the United States Marine Corps and the United States Submarine Service.What this memoir says about the human predicament will help any person who wants to learn about the power of inner spiritual transcendence.As it states in the "Big Book" of Alcoholics Anonymous, "Half measures availed us nothing. We stood at a turning point." We asked His protection and care with complete abbandon." Chief Smith will show you how he made his lonely journy from successful yet suffering hero, , to a happy and spiritualy fullfilled psychological counselor, father and grandfather. His life and career demonstrates a man who never did anything including his drinking and writing of this honest memoir, with "half measures." Read, learn, and enjoy.
