C. Boone received both his BS and MA degrees from Appalachian State University and his Doctor of Arts with concentration in Modern German History and International Political Systems from Middle Tennessee State University. His interest in the Third Reich peaked while serving in the army and stationed in Berchtesgaden, Germany. Ultimately he was named Director of Publicity for the Armed Forces Recreation Center, headquartered in Berchtesgaden, and he began an extensive study of the Nazi activities in the area—especially at the Obersalzberg. His research led him to interview Paula Hitler (Hitler’s sister), Johann Langwieder (Hitler’s immediate superior in World War I), and Hans Baur (Hitler’s personal pilot from 1932–945).
While in the army, his articles were broadly published in American newspapers throughout Germany and specialized magazines in the states. He and his wife have traveled in 49 of the American states as well as many foreign countries, Russia being the most recent. He and his wife, Ann, have two children and four grandchildren.view less
