MILITARY AUTHOR RADIO
APRIL 23, 2013 GUEST:
JONNA DOOLITTLE HOPPES
Military Author Radio, www.militaryauthorradio.com with Director Dr. Tom Gauthier and Dari Bradley CEO of Patriot Media, Incorporated, is proud to continue to promote Military Authors in support of the Military Author Industrial Complex.
The granddaughter of General James H. Doolittle, Jonna Doolittle Hoppes, has written two books: Calculated Risk, a biography/memoir about her grandparents, and Just Doing My Job, a collection of 19 stories from WWII. Her articles have appeared in Smithsonian's Air and Space magazine, as well as other publications.
Jonna has toured the United States and Europe delivering the same message. "If we don't record our stories, they will be lost." Central to that message is the theme that ‘there are heroes among us: People who will tell you that they were just doing their job, but, in reality, through their service, they gave us the freedom we enjoy today. The heroes among us fought in WWII, Korea, Vietnam, and Desert Storm. They are fighting in Afghanistan and Iraq today. There are also heroes among us who kept the home fires burning and America functioning as they waited for our soldiers to come home from harm's way.’
