by Duwayne K. Redmann (Author)
The Nathan Hale Boy's Club is the personal US Marine Corps service record of the author, Duwayne K. Redmann. D.K. joined the Marines immediately after his high school graduation in June 1946 with a burning desire to fly and "see the world." At the same time in Washington D.C., Secretary of the Navy James V. Forrestal, (later named the very first Secretary of Defense) was recruiting members to join his Boy's Club, a clandestine group of leaders and patriots focused on assisting the Nationalists during the late years of China's Civil War. In The Nathan Hale Boy's Club, Duwayne details his military training, flying missions and personal interactions with a wide array of players connected to Secretary Forrestal's surreptitious involvement in China's Civil War. The reader is exposed to the intricate interweaving of world politics, economic influences and leader egos.
