This book is the second in a series about how I learned some of the most important lessons in life. For me many of those lessons happened while I was in the navy. That should be understandable because that was the first time I was away from home, still in my late teens but on my own out in the world away from the comfortable and secure surroundings I grew up in. This book covers the time period when I was still new in the navy, going to various schools before I would be of any real use. It's not really about the navy as much as it is about the people. What people do is where you learn a lot about life.
